Dear Folks:
By the newspaper clipping and picture of Galbaugh he surely hasn’t changed any. He still looks the same. Ted Lyons the Chicago White Sox pitcher came in to see me yesterday. He used to live at the Brevaart we had quite a session. I showed him the picture of Galbaugh. Ted is a Captain in the Marine Corps. Yesterday, I also got a letter from Ada. She is still the same.
I was glad to see Wilkie get defeated. At least the state primary’s show they don’t want him. He surely will never get any votes from Marines or the men in uniform.
My cold is somewhat better. All I need is a trip home and that I know would cure my ills. It also would cure the ills of thousands like me. Maybe one of these days they will come to my name.
How is the kitchen coming along? It surely must be completed by now. I’ll bet you are glad that it is.
Not much news but I wanted to let you know that I am ok and thinking of you.
All my love,
Your son, Leo
Cap’t. L.J. McLoskey
