 Letter from Gretchen Williams to Clarence Williams May 6, 1944 Institute for Holocaust Education Clarence Williams Collection Gretchen Williams Folder English Stories Clarence Williams Idris Dick Dorothy Howard Wes Cotter, Delores C. Williams, Gretchen Williams, Clarence Encoding Transcription Transcription and initial encoding Friday— Dear Clarence:

Am really too tired to write but wanted to say "hello" and "I love you." Am at Idris's. Is now 11:00 and we just finished our work. Went out home after work and sprinkled my clothes and fixed dinner. She came out there after 6:00 and we ate and then came here. She washed and I ironed.

Had a fairly nice time last night. Dorothy went along too. Was home and in bed at 12:15.

Shais phoned tonight. Howard & Wes both read notices today to report the 26th. So guess the delay wasn't for long.

Played gin rummy with Delores Cotter this noon and won 12¢. Will probably lose it next time we play.

Well Honey — think I'll wash my face and get ready to crawl in.

Oh yes — Dick wired he is coming home tomorrow. We sure wish you were too but maybe it won't be long.

Nightie Night Honey,

Love Gretchen.
