Format Correspondence

User-Contributed Transcription Dear Rose, Ben, Jenny
The problems of flu and et-cetera in a tribe of my size plus my post-flu industry has caused this delay of my annual report.
While sitting inn the chair for oral surgery last month I thought of you Ben with a "dry socket" and hoped my problem would not get complicated. It didn't! The navy did the work and all eventually turned out O.K.
Lu's new gams are attractive! She had all the varicose veins removed. Dr. Tullis in La Jolla at the helm. He did an outstanding job.
Butch Jr. tried his hand at drinking booze at a party. He was so sick I believe he's going to be a tee-totter. (until much later I hope)
