Description

I must now come to a close My Dear Wife and I will try and write to you next Sunday as usual if I am not on duty on that day again and if I am and it is not too cold I will spend the evening in writing to you as I used to do in talking to you and enjoying your company I often think of those times and wish that we could have the pleasure of liveing them over again instead of being thus seperated but I hope our seperation will only be for a short time yet. it is now a little over four months since we last saw each other the time has appeared very long to me and I hope ere another four months rolls around that we will again be liveing hapily together with our country at peace is the wish of your Ever True and faithful Husband My Respects to all Good By
