Charles Stevenson letter to Ogee - n.d.

Transcript

Camp Funston Wednesday Dear Ogee: Your letter of Tuesday came today. It sure did make good time. In regard to your coming to Olathe Saturday and Sunday, I thought perhaps you could see me and Uncle Curn at the same time, thuskilling two birds with one stone, as they say. However, there is no use for you to wait on the theory that Maurice will be here soon, as I think it very improbably that he will be sent home for some time to come. My furlough is vague and indefinite. I do not know whether I will get it or not, altho I can see no reason to wait until then to come home - - good and well. I only mentioned your coming because Uncle Curn and I both would be there at the same time. I am making all plans to be in Olathe Sunday, so if you decide to come up I will no doubt be there. What I thought you meant to do was to come to Olathe for Saturday and Sunday only. I suggest that if you do decide to come that you wire me to reach me by Friday evening at the very latest - - so in case I cannot come I can wire you before you leave Tulsa. In case I wire I will send it to your postoffice box, so keep close tab on it Friday evening and Saturday morning. Love, [Charles Stevenson]
