and I will make you happy which I know you deserve very much. Honey, try to be patient a little longer and I know things will be all right for us. Honey, tell the boys Slim misses them and is very sorry he couldn’t come in when he was supposed to. Excuse my writing as the pen is writing very bad. Kiss Mikey for me. Honey, don’t let him forget me. Honey, I love the little Guy. Well, Honey, I will close for now as the pen is gone for good. I love you Hazel Fitchett.
I love you, Honey
Forever Yours

Honeymoon Lane
Friday Morn.

Hello Sweetheart,
Just a few lines while I am eating breakfast. Wish you were near me, I miss you very much. Honey I believe I would be a very sick boy if anything should happen that would keep me from you because I am longing for you most every day. Darling I will try to be very good and try to make this all up to you which is no {illegible} now that I can’t be near you. Honey I need your kisses and your arms around me. I love you Hazel and I need you more than I have ever needed anybody. How I have learned to love you, and I do honey. Darling I know I need you and want to be near you. I don’t want to eat or I can’t eat as I have to be near you to be a normal boy. That girl they call Hazel is what Slim needs.
Honey we will be happy …{missing piece} … Devote my time to making you …{missing piece} …

Note the special delivery stamp, Slim really wanted Hazel to get this letter, he wrote and sent it the same day so she would have it in the afternoon.
