Ding attended an event with Gange, with whom this was a second date. He wrote that he never liked her and if he ever asks her again, he hope someone kicks him in the pants.

Dear Dorothy:
Received your letter of monday noon and was indeed glad to hear from you, will be more than happy to forgive you for not writing sunday.
There were two things that I requested of you last friday night, First, send me the picture in question.
Second, be sure and tell me when I should come to Jesup, this week, the latter of course you did’nt do which was disappointing as I can think of nothing I would rather do.
However, I wish to thank you very kindly for the picture which I shall keep.
I did attend the president’s birthday, I had two drinks was the soberest guy there, thought sure I would see you and was very capable of seeing and talking to you in the event that I would be forunate enough to find you.
I had my second and last date with Gange, I never did like her and if I ever ask her again I hope someone kicks me in the pants, but I am positive that will not be necessary.
I got in at a very early hour and felt fine sunday,I plan to make a habit of that .
Of course I am interested in your activity and note in your letter to what extent they went to this week end I mean last week end, I really hope you had a very nice time, in fact hope you always do.
If it is becoming embarrassing for you there of course is only one thing to do, forget that I ever existed and I will try hard to do the same, it will be difficult now for me, but will go right to work at it as that apparently is your wish.
I would very much like to see you this week and would call you, but your letter is obvious enough that you would like to call the whole thing off before you get caught and if that is the case I suppose I should step out and let you lean in the direction where things are the stronger, regardless of my opinion.
I just opened an envelope which had the enclosed letter in, I wrote it Jan. 4th. and called you in place of mailing it, but it looks like you want it now.
You ask me in your letter, Don’t you think we had better leave it as it is?
Frankly I don’t, this is entirely your idea there seems nothing I can or should do about it regardless of how I feel about it.
I am sure you know how you feel about it and after all you are the one to make up your mind and it is apparent in your letter that you have, unless I have misconstrued it.
I’ll bet they miss us at the silver slipper are parties are quiet there but fun any way, I am thinking of writing them advising that our theme song has been changed from Josephine to Thanks for the Memories, you don’t mind a little pun right here I hope.
Well Dorothy I am nearing the bottom of the page, mabe this letter is silly I don’t know, but as you say I am silly.
Even tho I may have said it I never thought that you were a two – timer and don’t accuse me of it again or I’ll mo ya down so help me.
If you are interested I have not had a change of heart and glad you have not, even tho-.
I don’t suppose you care to write me again but if you do I would be very glad to hear from you.
As ever
“Ding”
[handwritten] Last minuet that I will not enclose the letter of Jan. 4th.
