20 March 1945

 

Dear Folks:

It’s been some time since I have written you but I have had little occasion to do so.  However perhaps I can get going again.  A few days ago I received three packages, one from Kate and two from you.  Perhaps they will yet get to me.  They were Christmas boxes containing the fruit cakes.  No I haven’t gotten one from Gram or from Mrs. Conklin.  I see more mail has come in tonight so perhaps there will be something there.  Well I’m feeling pretty good but hardly anything newsworthy has happened.  Mail has been coming in good and yesterday received one from Wylma, the first in over two years.

I’m sorry I haven’t more to write about but perhaps I can do better next time.

Love,

Harold Moss Signature
