User-Contributed Transcription 2 a.m. July 2, 194 Darling Tafern On page 32 of Time for June about A Lover and His Lass that I hope you will read. Buy a copy if you can't get it at the library. The story tells about the 6th Marquess of Northhampton of Castle Ashley (you recalled Mr. Ingham always pronounced it Castle Ashby) and his new bride. Can't tell you how delighted I was to get your letter telling about Marvin's work hours, address, presents and so on- When my brains don't feel baked, as they do now, I will write to him. Yesterday the mercury stood at 96 for several hours. Then a fine big thunder storm came up and cooled us off (75 now.) about all I did, after getting and frying a nice mullet for my dinner, was to read, nap and fan. in the margins: would exceed all expectations and more if only the U.S. would concentrate all their planes and to?hs and me?? now on Hitler or the Russian front, the war would be almost over in Europe by the end of '42. Lots of love to all. Mother yes, I liked Gold Rush but his representation of Hitler is better.
