May 23, 1903 ~ Horatio’ s letter to Bertha
My darling Swipes. The hardest work I ever did was to say goodbye to you. . . . I came pretty nearly having cold feet. There isn't one woman in a thousand that would let a fellow do what I have done, and I can tell you old girl I appreciate it. ... Please give my best love to your mother & tell [my] father & mother that I love them as much as ever. I shall write you when I can & shall depend on you to keep them posted. Yours till New York, Nelson.[P.S.] Take good care of yourself & don’t worry.
