Dear Molly—

 

I know it’s impossible to write as soon as you receive a letter and you know I never “crab” when you don’t write for a long time cuz I get the prize.

Right now I’m waiting for a new…

Always,

 

Mary

 

P.S. My flame is still burning for Kuki. We rite about 3-4 times a week —he’s in Gila 175 miles away.

 

Fukuki not Fukude-He’s a swell guy yo.
