Oct. 18— 34—
Dearest Dora:—
Perhaps I am out of order in writing to you. But gee honey what is the matter? Did I do or say some thing to stop the ever welcome letters? I don’t know what to say until I hear from you. Every day I look for some word from you but, some how none shows up.
I am not feeling so hot tonite. Have a head ache and a cold in my head. Things are sure quiet here. My friend Max sold his interest in this club. I haven’t seen him for a month. [p. 1] But I am still working here for the other pardner. I go to work at 9 P.M and get of at 4 a.m then I work at another place for three hours. And say honey wish you could have seen me Sat. nite. For the first time in four years I stepped out in a new outfit. Every thing I had on was new. Hat, shoes, suit, shirt, tie, sox, underwear, and watch & chain. And it is all paid for. Now for a car and home to S. L.
I am writing this over the bar and the rail bothers me so excuse please the bum writing. [p. 2]
How are all the girls and boys? If you are not all mad at me, please drop me a line. The phone number here is Olympic 5572— Emeryville Cal Any nite palsie walsie—
I haven’t paid my last weeks hotel bill but I can still pay for a phone call. The boss can take it out of my pay—
There isn’t much news to tell you. I have been to a quite a few shows lately. That is about all I do. I went over to Sacramento a few days ago, and over to Modesto last week. I have been on the wagon for a week. I sure [p. 3] feel lots better when I don’t drink anything. Every friday nite we have a free feed here Last Friday I cooked Virginia baked ham, candied sweet potatoes and the trimmings. Some cook.
Well dear I won’t take up any more of your time. Please write, soon sweetheart. I love you dear and you know it. Say any thing you won’t to just so as you write. Give my love and kisses to all[.] Tell dad hello. And keep sweet.
As ever your loving daddy
Bill—
