December 21, 1943

Dear, sweet Mom,

A most happy birthday to you. I wish very much that I could be there to enjoy it with you. My only sorrow is that I failed to find a present for you. I missed Daddy's helpful hints and pocketbook.

I had intended to call in to send a telegram on the 24^th but I'm afraid I'll be incarcerated in the hospital over Christmas.

I hope this letter reaches you in time to be of some use.

Best wished for a happy and joyful birthday, dear Mom, from,

your loving son,

Linus
