Sunday I got your last letter. By the way, I thought you did not like to write. Well you did alright with that nine page letter. I wish I gotten it Friday night, then I wouldn't have missed you at the station.
I hope that you did not catch a cold Saturday night because of the rather damp weather. Going back to town from the Hostel I guess I scared two W.F.A. girls to death. That's okay, the next girl nearly got me. She was walking home with a fellow who had his bicycle with him, I could see the bicycle O.K. so I stepped to the side. Then I was attacked by a secret weapon. Lucky for me I dodged just in time. The girl was carrying an umbrella and she almost put my eye out with it. You girls carrying anything for protection! You know something Blue Eyes, the women of Welshpool sure look after the yanks.
Saturday night just before the truck pulled out, Hugo (a driver) asked if anybody had seen Havener. I told him who I was on the truck. He told me that some girl had seen me leave the town hall drunk just before the trucks got ready to leave and she wanted to know if I got aboard. I asked Hugo who she was but he did not know. Do you know who she could be? As for being drunk...I think she was for I was sober.
Well Blondy, I will look for you in the Queens Hotel before the dance next Saturday. I am still thinking about the ice cream soda that you are going to buy for me some day in the near future.
Love,
Arthur
