Dear
I received your letter the other day and I could not write on account of not having any money to buy stamps, but I managed to get this stamp from one of the boys. Well anyway I and sending you the key to my trunk so you can lock it. The government cheque will be there on or about the 10 or 15 of the month and when it comes let me know how much it is so we won't get chiseled and if it isn't there by the eighteenth or nineteenth of the month write and tell me. Well this is all for now. This fountain pen don't write very good. Don't forget to write.
George.
Poor Frank, for years he had his Irish family going send us this, send us that, now his son 's every letter is a plea for money or a favour.
