Monday, August 23, 1937

Dear Dorothy:

I regret very much that I did not see more of you Saturday night and want to apologize for making such a hasty departure after meeting Mr. Moore. I however had had 4 beers which is more than I can take and depend on my rationality, I wanted to be sure no one spoke out of turn.

Did you enjoy the band? for some reason or other I thought they [were] terrible, it could have been me but I still won’t like them.

Now, how would you like to come to Waterloo and go to a dance this Friday night Aug. 27th at the country club.
All you have to do Dorothy is get here, it would be nice of course to get here Friday some time before the dance starts.
I would be more than happy to take you to Eldora Saturday any time after 6P.M. if you see fit to accept this invitation, which I hope you do.

Now Dorothy you get busy and let me know right away what you intend to do about this as Friday is not so far off, my good shirt is dirty, if you accept I will get it washed and ironed get my car cleaned and pressed and just generally fixed up.

If the mail carrier does not hand me a letter Wed. from you he might as well look for a new job.

Best wishes.
Ding

  1. Too funny—Ding appears to be saying he will have his car cleaned and pressed. I certainly hope so. I so abhore a wrinkled seat.
