Darling Janie,

Just a line confirming that I hope to be down on the last train on Friday night.

As I said I’ll find my own way home. I’m not bringing anything with me except a shaving brush, razor and a toothbrush—and a lot of love.

Two nights together, oh boy, oh boy…

All my love to you both,

Your own,

Johnnie xxxx
