Dear Mother:
I am sending a money order for $10. Buy those $8.50 shoes with it and bank whatever is left over so I will have a little money saved. I don't think that we will get a 48 this weekend because we are about a week behind in our flying. If we do get one though I will write you and let you know. I have been carryi ng that money order around for two days so I thought that I had better send it. 1= received the papers alright but when I got the parcel the chicken was spoilt so we couldn't eat it. But we went into Mossbank and had a chicken supper anyways so it don't matter a awful lot. This is just a short note to let you know that I am all right. I will write again on Wednesday when I have got a little more time.
