My Precious,
There was just no place to
mail the first part of this letter—
I’m still not sure I can find a
place to mail this. As to writing
“convenience”—this scribbling is done
by 3 candles up against a tent stove &
its so close to night duty time I
just cant even call this second edition
a “letter.”
Anyhoooo, I love you & Thump[1]
so so so very very much. These
nightmarish-holocosts [though it may be
hard to reason-out/understand][2] just bring
the 3 of us “closer” together (if such is possible).
All of my love & all of me to you,
Dave
