My Darling Love

No letter this morning — but I am not at all surprised — I do hope Young Heaven went as well as Trojan Women.4 Littlewood5 is going to town for 2 days and will take this — he is just off — This is only one little word of love and good wishes in haste — Bless you my Beloved — I long for you — All my heart yearns to you every moment.
