No letter from Dart since August 16. I guess he meant it when he talked about how busy he was, but I can’t see how he could be much busier than Dot, who at least manages a couple of pages.

She is struggling to write the lines because her eyes are swollen from tears. She has just come home from seeing Tender Comrade and it obviously touched her deeply. She says that after seeing it, she is more sorry than ever that she was unable to tell Dart what was in her heart when she saw him last. “But since I didn’t, you’ll have to make a point to come home very soon so I will be able to tell you that I love you very, very much.”

While sleeping on the McDonald’s porch last night, she’s sure she saw the star Dart referred to in a recent letter. It was big and bright and more twinkly than the others.

She tells him to take of himself and know that she loves him always.
