Dearest Hubby
How are you, dear? Hope your trip was pleasant. According to my watch you'll be in Wilmington in 20 minutes. Was the train on time? I hope everything was O.K. + that you made good connections to camp. Did you go out with the boys?
This A.M. I slept quite late. Didn't get downtown til about 2:45 P.M. And went straight to the Bookshop. They're going to try to get me that other book ($7.50), and if I don't want it, they will accept an exchange or refund. If it's at all good, I think will keep it. And guess where they're going to send it? To "Mrs Harold Cohen." Oh hon, I'm so happy. I think it will be wonderful when we're together. We should be very happy.
Tonite, Ho + I are going to dine at Freeman [Cheems?], + then go to see "Angel Street." I was able to

get tickets for $1.10 this aft for tonite's performance. Very lucky.
The stores don't have a great variety of grey skirts, + didn't have the particular style I want - so no grey skirt. Won't try again + will try to do with the clothes I have, unless there a very exceptional buy.
Since Ho won't be here til 7 o'clock, plopped myself at the writing desk of a hotel on 48th St near Freeman's to write you. But this is my own stationary.
Well, today after my shower I looked at myself - +, hon, that wasn't dirt, but suntan. My nose is peeling a wee bit. Not too bad. Boy! Mom + dad sure will admit that marriage + the sunshine agree with me.
Ooh! The rings are sparkling away. Took our stuff from the office today, but couldn't
[page III]
count it or anything cause have been in very public places all day.
Wonder when you'll have an opportunity to look for room(s)? Let me know what you find, even if it isn't good, just to give me an idea of what's what. I'm mighty curious to know if there are any rooms with Jewish people. It would be con-venient. But - who knows in Wilmington.
Were things the same "at the office"?" Are you still busy? Did Capt. Lash return? Was Lou A. Married? Is Rosy feeling fine?
No more to write. But I do miss you very very much, + am so glad we'll soon be together again.
With all my love-
Your very own
Bev.
