Letter from Warren Johnston to Bobby [Letter 141]

Gee, it smells wonderful Thursday night 4 Jan Darling Your wedding hankie is much too precious for me to keep here. If it were any other I would carry it around with me or at least keep it in my cabinet and take it out to breathe in the lovely smell once in awhile. But it's sure to get soiled or even moldy-smelling here and after fondling it-once again I shall return it to you darling. I loved your sending it, precious. The hankie I'm sending Wendy under separate cover needs washing - I didn't trust the laundry here to do it. The flower was done by a young girl whom I don't know; a young man in the office just asked me if I’d like to have it done, only instead of accepting the handkerchief which went with his offer I explained that my daughter's initials were the same as mine and therefore I’d like to us a monogramed one. W. Be sure to let me know that you've received your wedding hankie again
