Transcription
Dear Dr. Stearns,
I was very glad to hear that you had a pleasant time in Europe. It was a great treat to Charlie. He appreciated more than words can tell.
I am now working at the Visiting Nurse Association -- on the districts. It is part of entertaining. It is great fun! I work mostly around the Italian and juvenile settlements. The majority houses are rather dirty but I feel that I have done a day's work when I come off duty daily. The Italians are very appreciative they show their appreciation by serving the nurse wine and spaghetti. It struck me very funny but I know just how they feel and tried to refuse it nicely.
Tom mentioned to me about buying a car that you have already given him permission. I hope that you have not misunderstood that I am supposed to have half of it. No, I am not. Tom asked & I refused him because I have promised both you & my father that I will try to spend as little as possible this year.
And at your convenience will you please send me three hundred dollars as my bank account is getting to near hundred again. I will send you the account as soon as I have a day off to copy it.
With best wishes,
Yours sincerely
Mary
