Dear Dolores:
It really hasn't been so long since I last saw you but to me it seems like ages. You will remember that I told you, as well as a number of others, that I haven't minded living by myself so much. That was a true statement but I am finding it hard to get settled down to a “bachelor's” life again. I think yesterday and today I minded being alone more than any other time, and I haven't been entirely alone but a very little of the time. Do you know why I feel this ? I'll tell you. It is just because I was in such GOOD company all of last week and had such a grand time that -well, it is just hard to get adjusted again. Please don't think I am being inconsistent, but in another sense I am not so much alone after all. Every time I come into the house and see your picture here on my desk it gives me lots of comfort. Pardon my ego again, please, but I like to think that the broad smile is all for me. In all seriousness, I think it is a grand picture and I appreciate the fact that you were willing to get it for me.
Many times today I have been wondering whether or not you were working or still resting from your vacation. I hope you have had a chance to recover from the activities of last week. For me the day has been filled with activity. This forenoon I got my heater set up so now I am ready for cold weather. It works very well and I am sure I am going to like it. In fact it is in operation right now and it feels good. Besides that I made a trip to Allegan to get some things that were necessary for the house and also did a few odd jobs that really needed to be done. There are several others that should be done – such as, house-cleaning! O, yes, I shouldn't forget this. I mailed the rotar-button from a certain automobile in Houghton to the owner. It was all nicely packed in a large box and sent C. O. D. for sixty-eight cents. I am anxious to know how it will come out. This afternoon I have been working out and expect to do the same thing tomorrow forenoon. In the afternoon I will be attending the Holiness Meeting near here that you heard me mention.
Dolores, would you like something to worry about? Of course I'm not being serious now. It is nothing for you to worry about, although I don't intend to worry about it. I got a letter this morning asking if I would speak at a Young People's Holiness Convention in Holland, MI the evening of Oct. 14. I have already answered that I would plan accordingly. Was that the right thing to do? I am told that there were 200 young people present at the last meeting so it will be a real opportunity.
I have thought so many times today about how I teased Mary E. Was she by any chance offended? I hope not. Perhaps I did run on her a little too hard but I felt sure she could take it, and I still do. Tell her I think she is O. K. and if by any chance she was offended, let me know and I will write her a letter of apology.
I'm looking for a letter tomorrow. Will I get it? I feel sure you did your part. Until next time, GOOD-NIGHT!
Yours, Ted
Prov. 3:6
(over please)
I believe I forgot to give you Ivone's address. Here it is. Mrs. W.H. Holsted, 1924 Maiden Lane Rd., Rochester. She would be glad to hear from you I am sure.
Again – Goodnight!
