Subject

Italian-American, 1944

Description

My darling husband, how are you getting along. The bay and I are doing fine. I received two wonderful letters. I'm happy that you have been so hapy since we got married. Dearest it makes me feel good to know that you like going to church because it is very important to my family. Emilio was telling my mother that the war will end soon. The papers are making predictions. What do you think of the attempt on Hitler's life and the arresting of the whole Jap cabinet. I'll let you know whether to make a diaper bag or another purse for me. I'll let you know how I will save your check. I'll put the Bond money in the Cowman Wealth and we would have $500 of the Buckeye. I haven't cashed any of my checks. I will work few more weeks for spending money. Everyone is surprised of how look even though I'm six months pregnant. I love you so much. God bless you. Your loving wife Leona.
