My dearest Mother-
How are you and the family getting along? I was surprised to hear of you living in Granite City. But I hope you are enjoying it. I have just gotten back from the front and am getting along all o.k. I hope you all are getting along all right by now. Mother, I guess I have received all your letters. I have rec’d a goot many. I will not have time to write much this time as we are moving. I will write you again next week so don’t be uneasy about me. Give my love to all. Tell Ethel and George to write me. Kiss the kids for me.
I’m your son.
Sgt. Judson W. Dennis

Mother, I have been promoted to a sergeant.
