Dear Evelyn,

Many thanks for the Oates tip, sold them six glare-chasers, they would have slipped through my fingers had it not been for you. I’ll bet Pressley would appreciate your telling a Cedartown employee where to sell six units.

Evelyn I don’t believe you could ever realize how much I’ve missed you. The place will never be the same to me without you and I thought all the time it was the work that made me enjoy being in and around the Power Co. so much. The place has lost it’s charm and the best home economist working for Mr. Arkwright. For everyone else this is the same ole merry-go-round, Warren and his songs, Brumby and his wise cracks, Gilmore and his worries. Nothing has changed except that George has grown older, Jack has an extra dark coat of tan, and a strange blonde comes in sometimes and sits at your desk.

Sunday afternoon was about the most enjoyable one that I’ve ever spent. It wasn’t the weather or scenery that made it so perfect either. How any one person can be so agreeable, so lovely, and as sweet as you are is beyond me. Lady, you are the best company that I’ve ever kept.

I’m looking forward to Saturday night and hope to make you have no regrets for giving me the date and the things it caused.

With love

Punkie
