It’s definitely “crunch time” for Dart. To prevent the temptation of writing more than he has time for, he’s composing this letter early in the day. If he waits until tonight, he fears he’d go on too long and neglect his school work.

He’s feeling well rested today after sleeping 10 hours and then taking a long bath. He hates to miss church, but sleep is necessary.

All the bounty from her second shower has left them with a wonderful problem; how will they get all that stuff back to Ohio? He sounds nearly overwhelmed by the generosity of her friends and relatives.

He’s decided to leave the rest of the page blank so that maybe he can add a kiss later tonight.

The bottom of the page: “Wake up, Darling. I want a little response when I kiss you tonight. This was a lovely evening for a drive and I took one. It took me through the ‘Let’s go!’ park. Gee, I missed you, and I still do, and I will till we can go to bed together and tell of our love.”
