My Dearest Katsuno,

Thanks for your 26th loving letter on Friday just after the funeral. You know how much I love your letter to have, but not reach me yet the Japanese letter. Old man is healthier than was in Montana, very well now, tell her that Japanese letter will take almost full a month for censor.

I wish you move to new private apt sooner. He waiting to see his son who going to east for study. I used passing by the "park" ours of outside my window every early morning, when I saw a cute little arched bridge in it. The bridge painted red is pleasing to the eyes. Certainly it adds much to the beauty of the camp. I think I appreciate the services of the man who made it my next bed man. I found the turtle taking a nap as usual in a corner of the "pond" and to my delight I found a single corn on the stem in our "park" we so calling.

Did you met Miss Takako? Wish call her again to meet her brother and console them. Please best care yourself for my sake. Best regards to Mrs. Misao, Ito, Mrs. Matsuda, Okiyama, Mrs. Arima, Sunohara, Mr. Mrs. Terazawa, Seiji, Mrs. Kawata and her son.

With love

Your Genji
