Feb 26, 1933-from Martha to James

Dear James,

Sunday night again. It is 9:15 and the children are sound asleep. It has been another real spring day, the temp. was over 50. We spent rather a lonesome day. I did a little ironing this morning and baked a raisin pie for dinner. We all worked at the puzzle a while and I read about half of ” The Call of the Wild” This evening we got out the new album and the pictures and looked them over but it was too big a job to put them away again. I wish we could have a good long talk together. I’d especially like to know how this check is holding out. If possible you must buy yourself a couple of shirts and some collars and get your suit cleaned and your shoes fixed.

Love, Martha

Monday morning, Feb 27

Another nice spring day with a strong wind blowing from the East, It is clouding up as tho it might rain. I hope things don’t break for you yet awhile. Just sit tight and whatever happens there’ll be another way out. There is no use worrying as long as we don’t know what’s ahead so just keep up your spirits and keep busy as you have been and we’ll do the same. I hope your leg is better and that you can come up soon. “We’ll be seeing you.” Love, Martha
