Many thanks for your precious letter which you wrote on our commemoration day. Wrote I regularly? It is limited but my fond of task and greatest pleasure to me, understand or not? I am most fortunate Dad as long as you live... with my heart, best care yourself please. We have much rain here very often this month our [censored] some time too. Am glad you had good service on Pentecost Sunday by Rev. Machida. Also you attended young folks meeting by Miss Armstrong. It's passed just a full a month since you evacuate there. Happy heard from Meiyo about Puyallup every minutely. The old man new comer is sick in bed. We have no flower as flowerlike except lilac what I sent you in letter May24th. You are lucky to looking through mess hall window, blossom of wisteria, herbaceous peony, iris and view of dandelion which have here too. I have about twenty polished stones and cigar box full of unpolished ones. Ten of best of them will reach you near future. You will find and recognize my spirit in it too.

You do not tell me but I could guess very easy about boys and... Make me yearning you... Save the picture of camp on 11th page May 25 P.I. Mr. & Mrs. Kawai and [illegible] were amoung [among] the line for mess alongside huge BLDG Area D and boys cooking in kitchen.
