Hi Mrs. Stafford:
Your new pictures are diving me crazy. I can’t decide which one to look at. The dress is very chic.
Hey! I’ve been trying to think of this for some time. You might as well have my grey tropical suit retailored for you as I know it will never fit me again. (Naturally, I want a snapshot when complete).
Bernie Johnson was in for a two-hour bore-ass yesterday, and it was most pleasant. We had quite a time talking over the flights we made together at OK city.
I have letters from both Blen and Chocolate to answer. Both have been very good about writing. Obie also writes frequently. He’s spent his vacation fishing in Wisconsin, as he has for ten years or more. He always sends his and Anne’s regards to you.
Thanks [My “Everitt” arrived] Each picture shows you daily growing more beautiful. Love, Cy.
