DEC 15TH
DEAR JIM,
RECEIVED AN AIRGRAPH OF YOURS TODAY DATED NOVEMBER TENTH. THOUGHT I’D BETTER ANSWER IT TODAY AS THIS IS THE LAST CHANCE I’LL GET FOR QUITE SOME TIME. WROTE YOU A LONG LETTER ON THE SEVENTH ALSO ENCLOSED PHOTOGRAPH WHICH I HOPE YOU HAVE RECEIVED.
DON’T YOU THINK THE WAR NEWS IS VERY GOOD? IT HELPS TO MAKE IT A BRIGHTER CHRISTMAS AT LEAST. NEXT YEAR (1943) SHOULD MAKE A DIFFERENCE I THINK.
HOW DID YOU LIKE ‘GONE WITH THE WIND’? I SAW IT BACK HOME JUST AFTER IT WAS RELEASED AND I THOUGHT IT WAS ONE OF THE BEST HOLLYWOOD HAS TURNED OUT TO DATE.
GLAD TO HEAR YOU CAN STILL GET INTO TOWN ONCE IN A WHILE TO SEE SOMETHING GOOD BY WAY OF ENTERTAINMENT. THANKS AGAIN FOR THE BOOKS. WILL WRITE AT THE FIRST OPPORTUNITY. CHEERIO, AND GOOD LUCK.
Hugh
