Friday Evening
Darling Mother,
I have just received yours and my
dear Father's letters, and had been thinking so
much of our last Xmas together that I must
recall it to you. I can't remember whether [Nita?] Lee
and Penny Bedinger were there Christmas day
or came on the day after, but I think they came
after. But don't you remember you made a
plum pudding because it was darling Charley's
first Xmas at home for so long and we tried
so hard to be bright and cheerful because it was his
first, and [we?] invited George Bedinger to dinner and
Capt. Patterson from over at Mrs. [?], but Capt
Patterson went to Dr. Stewart Baldwins and George would
not get here because so many had asked be
fore him. Charley had been down into Clark Co
already the day before and it was a little doubtful wheth
er he could get back.
