  • Walter E. Dandy Letter 07/22/1933

    Mother and I will probably be down to see you next Saturday. Do you want to stay another month or come home now? Let us know. We all want you with us – even Mary and Kitty, but if you are happier at camp, we can wait another month.

    Mary Ellen had her birthday party yesterday at Indian landing. She went in up to her neck. Kitty Lou turned a summersault in the water. They have rubber wings! We heard that you are a very good swimmer now that you actually swam the river. That was difficult for all of us to believe. Also delighted to hear that you had passed the canoe test and could dive.

    Fagin is getting so smart. He doesn’t eat the newspaper. He plays with the little girls, but I don’t think he gets too much kick out of them, for they don’t quite know how to handle him like his boy friend. I am sure he will feel happier when you return. He has a little playmate across the street. Every afternoon they meet on the lot and play.

    You haven’t answered my last letter. Please write Grandmother and Grandfather Dandy a card. They are at 3021 ARUNAH AVE. It will make them very happy for they are always thinking about you. Tell them what you doing and ask them to come to see you. Trusting you are having a continuous good time is the wish of your Daddy.

    Mary Ellen wants you to come home - also Kitty Lou.

    Dear Walter, I am sorry we can’t come to see you this weekend, but we will be there next Sat. or Sun. Mother
