John Early Andrews Collection of Letters
Letter from Jessica Early to her husband James Edward Early, World War I, August 1918. Washington D.C.
Washington, D.C.
August 1918
Dearest Ed. - in Rome!! And its wonderful to be back with my Betty Jane
and Carroll - I can't wait till you get back Friday or Saturday to see
your family! She certainly looks like a little doll dressed up in her
pretty clothes today. All the Whilteys and Lieut. Dougherty were in to
admire her. Hazel came after me - and some lovely pink roses came for
Betty Jane just before I left which I suspect came from her nice daddy
and she was so happy to get them. I undressed her and gave her her din
din at 7:00 - and she hasn't peeped all eve - awfully good. And Carroll
is so dear and kissed the pretty baby - he touches her so tenderly -
we're going to have lots of fun together.
Warron is going to mail this so is hurrying me. I dried this with his
black sweater - a big kiss - (not from her)
Loads of love from
Wed eve -
Your devoted
Jessica
