Letter:

Dear Mother, Dad and Ha. Erma,
Bet you thought I forgot you, huh, Erma.
Well mother you were correct in what you thought. I’m in fine shape, a little crowded. There isn’t much I can say so tell Mrs. Leila & Dot I’ll write when I can. Ha. I got more in L.A. too [Machinery, maximum?] Waves. Well I hope you are all well and don’t worry.
Love Joe
