Series: EM, AWF, Name Series

Dearest: We arrived here on schedule last evening.1 I feel somewhat better but am possibly a little more optimistic than General Snyder.2

Plan to leave here Sunday morning but am not yet sure how I shall come home. If weather is excellent so that we can maintain zero altitude pressure in cabin, I shall probably come in the Columbine, otherwise by ship.3

Do hope that you and Min are having a fine time with the children.4 I would certainly like to be with you. Love to all of you
