Letters From Vincent

My own dear Mother and Father, Your letters of September 23rd and 30th came in yesterday morning so you see the mail hasn’t been coming forward so regular as usual. Probably held up somewhere for a short period. This is just a short note and I will write at the first opportunity a real letter. You certainly can catch fish and I won’t deny the fact that you generally land the odd one. Fishing must be fairly good around the lakes this year. I suppose you are back from Ketchecum

Dear old Steve, Well you certainly did me a great old going over in your letter of October 5th and I deserve everything. You probably haven’t been getting your mail regularly forwarded from Holt’s bank. I wrote you several times last month, answered the letter you wrote from off ship board and am sure some are going astray if you have not received three or four lately. Many thanks for the box you sent me. There was a card in it from Jessie Rollins saying she was forwarding it
