Description
In this handwritten letter, postmarked March 24, 1928, Robert B. Ray writes to his fiancé, Denise Beyt (Ray) to say how sad he is when he doesn't get a letter from her and asks her to write as often as possible. He goes on to tell her when he will call her next and tells her she better not be out with anyone when he calls or as much as he loves her, he would "quit" her for good. He goes on to talk about what he needs to get started working, He talks about their future and sends messages to her family. In an addition to the letter, he complains that their phone call that evening left him feeling as though she had not wanted to speak with him and tells her when next he calls he expects a more enthusiastic response. An envelope with a Kosciusko, Mississippi postmark and a red, two cent postage stamp is included.
