22 October 1942

Dear Folks:

I have one airmail stamp left that I want to use and I can’t think of a better use than a letter to you, although you probably think I’ve dropped a marble by my prolific letter writing.

Had a letter from Gladys Davis—she’s doing better by me—she writes a good bit of news.  To go back aways to stamps—I can use plenty of airmail ones and stationery of this type that keeps within the weight limit on the clipper.  Think about Katie’s skirmish quite a bit and I wrote her tonight—suppose she’s acting a little wacky.

One of the guys I have an especial yen to, is from Youngstown and is pretty familiar with Sharon (Pennsylvania)and those parts.  He’s a newcomer and doesn’t fail to voice his protests.

Well I better finish or I’ll be dribbling off into some dreary dogma—put a pen in Dan and Nan’s hand once in a while.  Boy, could I go for some peas and shells.

Love,

Harold Moss Signature
