  • Walter E. Dandy Letter 03/12/1941

    If I have any more insults about this handwriting! But, come to think about it, Miss Margaret is the only really good writer in the family.

    I was so sorry for my little girl. You looked so well and still the pain was there and quite bad, but it is greatly improved at any rate.

    The weather here is lovely and am getting lots of sunshine. The bathing trunks are OK. The Hoffmans send you their regards. The maids are all inquiring about the angel. One of them said she would take care of her. Miss her at the 9th hole where she came because she “loved me!” Have been playing golf with three Irishmen from Boston. They are good fun.

    Have just had a 15 minute talk with McPhail about the hats: they are very enthusiastic about them. He is going to take out a patent in my name to protect everyone connected with the game against ringers who may hear about it and take the profits. Did you hear the radio report?

    Was very pleased with Walter’s report- even his highest score in spelling. It looks like he is going to come through now - with flying colors. Has Margaret gotten that badge yet? How are my little girls getting along in school and together? Have finished “The Star Gazer” and thought it was wonderful - the best historical novel I have read. Beginning “Jefferson” now. You should see how firm I am when bridge is mentioned. I haven’t forgotten the Angel’s reproof from last year.

    I hope Otenasek is better. Why not send him “The Star Gazer.” Also one to Dr. McClure in Detroit. Perhaps one also to Dr. Greene. You might call Dr. Broyles and tell him how much I enjoyed it. Won’t be long now ‘til vacation is all over. Dr. Chalmers Moore is coming down tomorrow for a few days with me.

    I hope you are all well again. Perhaps I’ll send my trunk a day early so Ize can wash the clothes. You have a key to the trunk.

    Love and Kisses,

    Daddy x x x x x x x
