This note from Dart is a frantic plea for Dot to be okay. He’s just received the letter about her physical exam and need for surgery, and he’s in a near panic. “I’m worried if anything should happen to you my whole life would be shattered. I love you so much that I couldn’t tell you all about it in a lifetime.”

He’s desperate to see her in Cleveland but doesn’t want her to travel if it would put her health in jeopardy. From her cryptic note, her ailment could be anything, but he prays it’s nothing serious.

“Good night, my dearest. Keep your chin up, little one. You’ve got lots of people pulling for you.”
