My dearest Dody

Ever so many thanks for your reply to my last; I was so awfully pleased to hear from you again, & am looking forward to your "next" which is reputed to have some "snaps" in it & I sincerely hope it will, do you know I have very nearly forgotten what you look like exactly, although I have your two latest photos continually before me; the ones taken in New York I think, Bethlehem or some such place if I remember right. Well dear this is to wish you & yours all good wishes for Xmas & New Year, your letter took only 29 days to reach me so this ought not to be very far out; oh I do
