Letter from Warren Johnston to Bobby [Letter 457]

406 Sunday 23 Dec. 8:45 pm My dearest darling, Just two letters from you in five days - the rest will catch up with me in Carmel. This is my last letter from Tinian! Tomorrow afternoon I take the boat over to Saipan, where I shouldn't have to wait more than 2 or 3 days. Last night my former Korean English class gave me a party and showered me with everything but the kitchen sink - I'm mailing a big box of stuff to Flushing in the morning. Yesterday afternoon the Japanese Scouts held a farewell ceremony at which some of the little girls had tears in their eyes - today the Koreans had theirs. This morning I caught a wahoo about 2 ½ feet long and weighing some 18th - going fishing was a swell rest. Gosh, I can hardly believe that I'm leaving. I love you, darling, and can hardly wait now to get home Warren
