Dear Billy:—
Say, Billy, do you cotton to kids? I don’t suppose you know whether you do or not, but if anyone should ask you about me, tell them I don’t. And I’ve been thinking about it quite a bit lately.
Do you remember Ed Cook? He came out to Kansas three years ago and got married. He and his wife are here now and her sister lives with them.
I met Ed Sunday afternoon. He was wearing a Y. M. C. A. button, and looked the part so well that I didn’t intend to speak to him, but he signaled me and piloted me up to the shelf in the apartment building where he sleeps.
We hadn’t been talking very long when the door opened and the sister came in. She was dressed to go out, and looked as if she was expecting someone.
