                                                            2 Sept.
Dear Folks:
            Cool, clear day here like Oct. over there. The flowers are about done after blooming all summer. Sounds like you had quite a storm. Not much to write this time. I’m going on leave so don’t expect any letters for a while after this one. News over the radio is surely good to-nite.
                                    Yours truly,
                                                John
