1967 Roberta's letter to Serena -Dec.10

[approximately Dec. 10, 1967]
Dear Serena,

Hi!  Was glad to get your letter today & also glad to hear you got home all right & that the bread was good.  Goldie (the cook) said she was afraid it might be a little stale.  Was it?

Now!  Would you like to know what "plain language" means at a Quaker school?  If not just skp the next page or so!)  Plain language is the use of thee, thou, thy – I can't really think of any others right now.

Yep – I did tell Gretchen your message – in fact she even read it for herself.  She says quote "You're welcome." Unquote.  & on & on like she always does.

Well!  Only two weeks till the Christmas Holidays at F.B.S. in 1967.!!!

Ask Mom & Dad to call up the Stuckey's and see what is going on.  Nobody seems to know at this end of the line.

Of course tell everyone I said – quote "Hello & will see you in less than 2 weeks! (1.5 hours less than two weeks)" Unquote.

Love,
Roberta

P.S.  You did take the package to Charma, didn't you?
