Be sure dear that Joe did his very best for his crew. Have faith and patience and you will hear from him within the next three months. They were so young and brave as a crew and Joe loved Jim very much.
I have a large house in the country, come and stay with me and your baby too this summer. You must remain pretty full

of hope in your Jim. He will do his best to come back to you.
My love to you and your baby. I will be glad to hear from you.
