Dear Folksies,

       Kansas City 9 A.M. pouring rain! At 4 P.M. Bob and I went back and taught the gals some more bridge. Crossed the Mississippi at 6:20 P.M. Had dinner with the gals again.

       Arrived in petticoats of Chicago at 10:45 P.M. We were shifted on various tracks all over, ending up on B & O line where they broke the train in two, as it was too long to service it in the station otherwise. Didn’t leave Chicago until 2 A.M.

                    Loads of love,

.

Next letter…
