Miss H. Schoen
Station Hospital
Santa Fe Detention Station
Santa Fe, New Mexico

Dear Miss Schoen:

This is just a note of my hearty thanks for your friendship while I was fooling around in your hospital. Without any attack from the German U-Boat, we shall arrive at Port Goa tomorrow. All our naughty boys from your hospital are surprisingly well and happy. Miss Shoen [sic], I'm really disappointed.

In closing, I wish you and all other the very best of everything. Will you give my best regards to Dr. Coombs, Miss Masterpole, and Miss Sacket?

Truly your [sic],
Shonosuke Futai
