John Early Andrews Collection of Letters
Letter from Jessica Early to her husband James Edward Early in World War I
Dearest - your nice letter today saying you'd just got three letters from
me surprised me - they were written three consecutive days. Why are they
so held up?
I'm afraid to leave sweetie till I hear you have found a place for us - a
hotel would be pretty expensive business & we could't leave the baby
nights to look. I had to buy a new trunk the one's in basement were
falling to pieces & your steamer was too small. Got a nice bargain for
11.32 holds our all. Am taking some linen and silver that's all. I just
can't wait to get there. I'd have to travel on sure to get there for my
birthday and havn't my ticket yet so it will be Wed. or Thurs I guess.
Will wire you from Chicago when I leave there - so don't fail to meet me.
If you're not at train, I'll go to Wormana waiting room -suppose there is
one in that depot. I'll wait till you come. If I knew where we'd be I'd
send on carriage now. Hope you have good luck in finding something for us
in small apartment.
Had a letter from Sara today saying they had a little daughter Mary Jane
- born in Burlington Sept. 12.
Goodnight dear heart hope to hear soon that you have something & will
start right on when you do.
Loads of love –
