had had ice cream and peanuts out on the balcony last night - the most beautiful night that ever was seen too, and were going with a crowd of D.D.S and AMA [American Missionary Association] teachers to sail on Charleston beautiful harbor for three hours or so next Sat. evening? Huh? I do want to see Francis Root and all his aunts and unttys and mother and father and grandparents most mighty bad. I have a right smart spell of homesickness quite steadily all the time. I'm jealous of Harl. No Harl is jealous of me. I guess I'll get home first. It is too too bad Wi has to be off at O.C. Comm. time.

This letter is nothing but these, it is the last you will hear from me for a while. Oh "home is the word now"
