Dearest Mother and Daddy,"" I received the letter from you all to-day that you wrote Apr. 26th. It took a little longer than usual to get here.
Well, here I am on night duty. This is my first night, and I've been rather busy. I have charge of 3 90-bed surgical wards, and believe me, it keeps me running. I have some pretty sick patients.
Every day I've been looking for and hoping I would have some word from Louis. I received your cablegram the 5th. Took quite some time didn't it?
I don't know if you noticed any return address or not. If not please observe. Your darling daughter is now a First Lt. my promotion came through to-day. So now I wear a silver bar.
There isn't so much other news, and then too, I didn't get but a couple of hours this afternoon.
