Dearest – Don’t expect me to write any more I’m in the air! Your letters (written Sun & Mon.) with check came today – & I’ve been so happy since there’s no living with me. I’m getting ready & you look for a tiny apt. bachelor if possible – (that means Murphy beds & no beedroom – just kitchenette & bath but you can do best you can now & if it doesn’t suit we can look together! Don’t know yet when I can come but won’t waste any time. Mother wants me to say Nov.! Imagine! Just as soon as you can get a place for us!

Loads of love & thanks for money.
J.
