Letter from Warren Johnston to Bobby [Letter 150]

#102 Thursday 11 Jan 9 pm Hi, Stinkie (no connection, tho! I used the term affectionately, as ever) There are times, only very occasionally nowadays, when I have to force myself to sit down and write even a sketchy letter; tonight, when I'm not so much tired as completely listless after the monotonous grind of another pay day, is one of them. I did manage to send a batch of clippings to you and the two snapshots to Muz just now - just to be sure she made the comparison - and asked her to return my baby picture to you. The resemblance is striking, isn't it? - ears, nose, mouth (eyes hard to tell, Wendy's being closed) - chief difference is shape of top of head. Wendy's being somewhat rounder and less oval. She should enjoy seeing the two in juxtaposition someday. Two letters from you today, Sweetie - #115 and 116 - which I'll answer later. But for heaven's sake tell me what Walter Benson said! You don't have to quote him directly. The same radio played “Dearly Beloved” today… This would be a dull night at home, after a hard and uninteresting day's work - but wouldn't it be swell to spend even a dull night at home? I love you, darling Warren See [?ingboards] to Tokyo”- Nat'l Geographic, Oct. ‘44
