Dear Bess:
Twenty-nine years! It seems like twenty-nine days.
Detroit, Port Huron, a farm sale, the Blackstone Hotel, a shirt store, County Judge, a defeat, Margie, Automobile Club membership drive, Presiding Judge, Senator, V.P., now!
You still are on the pedestal where I placed you that day in Sunday School 1890. What an old fool I am.
