  • Walter E. Dandy Letter 07/22/1944

    One of whom is now sweet 17. You are doubtless are having a good time, but you haven’t much on us for weather. It has been lovely here all week - nice and cool and some rain. Helen is cooking crabs tonight. The little robins grew so rapidly, they must have fallen out of the nest. They were so cute bulging over the nest. And this morning they were gone and the nest was deserted. The little wrens appear to like their new home. They buzz about and chatter and sing. Fagie isn’t much interested in them or anything except Paul during the day and he follows at my feet everywhere I go at night. His buzzard lady friend hasn’t complained any more. He goes with the mailman every morning.

    Too bad you can’t hear Bill Dyer. He has been unusually good the past two nights and the only radio substitute for the dull Democratic convention.

    Walter didn’t show up Sunday. I guess he didn’t have time. The house is so quiet! Mrs. O.T. came over yesterday to see Helen and will return again. Mr. Malone has had no luck catching the rat. Brought Mrs. Malone and a friends of hers to Hopkins Eye Department this morning.

    Wonder if Kitty’s ear isn’t a fungus infection. There is a lot of it around. A boil wouldn’t last so long. Can send you some fungus medicine if you wish. Won’t be long now until I join you. Is Margaret a good girl? Are you all proud of her?

    Love,

    Daddy x x x x x x Fagie forgot to send his.
