My deareste Fanny,
Your dandy letter to hand of the 28th and sure was glad to here from you. I just got through reading your letter so I am going to write at once. we are very busy at the store and I work hard today. I sure have some appetite the last few days. I eat such big meal and shortly afterwards I am eating again. So I am eating all the time. I know that your mother would rather pay my board than board me from the present appetite I have. I think I would eat you poor.
Honey I weighted myselfe and I lost five pounds but the way I am eating I will soon gain it back but perhaps I losing because I am in love with you so much the say that make a person loose weight. But that can’t be true because you sure are in love as much as I am and you told me in yesterday letter that you only weigh 310 (???) and 3 ounces. Honey if you were that heavy I would forget I ever knew you because I don’t care for such big ladies. It is getting colder tonight and there are loots of snow in the street and makes driving hard. Last night I was up to Funte and seen little Gertrude she is getting so wise you be surprised how that doll changed in one week. Hellen she gained 1/2 lbs in one week. Next Thursday Hellen is going home and I must do some mooning with the Ford that evening they all send their best wishes. Fanny B daddy was in the market to see me tday and bought a goose and some C Liner he wants me to come out to see them said that Fanny was sick the other night but is alright again, I may go out next week to call on them because I will not be here so many week anymore. I asked Kaiser today if he is looking around for a butcher and he said not yet. I don’t know if he think I am fooling or not but he better look around so he get some one that I can go or else he will be out of luck.
I just had to fill my pen with ink it run dry. Well I had to shave and a nice bath and I am all cleaned up so I can go to bed when I am through write this letter. I must go to bed early because I have been loosing my beauty sleep and it is begining to toll on me. Honey I sure did enjoy your letter to day because you told me how much you realy and truly love me. If I was there I would give you ever so many kisses to show you that I love you more than words can tell. Yes dear I was telling Flora Kahn how nice it was to be in love that she does not know what she is missing. i expect when she writes to you she will tell you how much I tease her, yes dear I was writeing to you just about the same time you were writing to me. That was Wednesday ever, i often wish I could call up on the phone and talk to you instead of wirte gee but that would be dandy but you are to far away. Dave Mlasky was telling me last night about the silver ware how nice it is and he said he know you would like it so I expect you have it by this time. I had a letter form home nothing new only that the girl were going to a charity ball. I must write home Sunday because to night I can hardly keep my eyes open. Well dear there is not much news in this letter but I will try and write you a nice love letter Sunday so give my love to mother and daddy and my best to the boys I will will close dear with such much love and kisses and every so many hungs gee but I wish I could see you again it seem like ten years times I seen you dear take good care of your selfe with my most expectation. Love from your lover, David.
