<salute>My darling wife and son,</salute>
</opener>
                
<p>Received your nice little letter of the 18th, this afternoon, when I got back from picking up a sack of walnuts. The timekeeper and I picked up one sack full under one tree, then went on to another timber but didn’t find any; didn’t have much time as we had to get back before supper. We will go out again tomorrow. I took a shower and washed my hair; have to shave after I sell commissary. Sure don’t sell much with only 50 men. Maybe the gang will be full again by the first of the week.</p> 
<p>Sgt. Ruth sent a corrected roster back today and there are only ten enlisted men left on the list as rest of them have gone on active duty. But to now I haven’t heard anything from them, so should get this month in this camp yet. </p>
<p>I am glad you didn’t buy those lots now if the price of them is that much in such a town as Lupton.. I think that it is best to let them go now until I find out about the Army; then if I don’t go; I’ll get a job somewhere and stay in one place for a change. I am getting tired of this life, putting up with drunks.</p>
<p>Well, honey, I’ll not write again as you wouldn’t get it before you left. Will be glad to be with you soon.</p>

   <salute>Mis queridos esposa e hijo:</salute>

  <p>Recibí su bonita carta con fecha del día 18 hoy en la tarde que regresé de recolectar un costal de nueces. El cronometrador y yo recogimos un costal entero debajo de un solo árbol. Luego fuimos a otro, pero no encontramos ninguna. No teníamos mucho tiempo porque teníamos que regresar antes de la cena. Volveremos a salir mañana. Tomé una ducha y me lavé el pelo. Me tengo que rasurar después de vender en el economato. De verdad que no vendemos mucho con solo 50 hombres. Quizá la cuadrilla vuelva a estar completa a principios de semana.</p>
  <p>El sargento Ruth mandó hoy una lista corregida y solo quedan en ella diez hombres enrolados, porque los demás están en servicio activo. Pero hasta ahora no he sabido nada, así que estaré en este campamento este mes todavía.</p>
  <p>Me alegra que no hayas comprado esos lotes ahora si el precio es tan alto en un pueblo como Lupton. Creo que es mejor <app loc="1"><rdg>dejarlos ir </rdg></app><app loc="2"><rdg>dejarlos pasar</rdg></app> hasta que yo sepa algo del ejército. Entonces <app loc="1"><rdg>si no voy </rdg></app><app loc="2"><rdg>si no me envían</rdg></app>, conseguiré trabajo en algún lado y me quedaré en un solo lugar para variar. Ya me estoy cansando de esta vida, soportando borrachos.</p>
  <p>Bueno mi amor, no volveré a escribirte porque no recibirías <add resp="iv001">esta carta</add> antes de salir. Me alegrará mucho estar con ustedes muy pronto.</p>
