Letter from James Wright to his parents, October 20, 1945


Letter from James Wright to his parents, Oct. 20, 1945

 

Luganville, Santo, N.H.

October 20, 1945

MIRACLES DO HAPPEN! A SHIP HAS COME FOR US! I’M UNCLE SUGAR BOUND! DON’T EXPECT ME TOO SOON, AS WE’RE STOPPING AT SOME OTHER ISLANDS ALONG THE WAY! IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME TO BE IN THE U.S. BEFORE NOVEMBER 10TH. DON’T EXPECT ANY MORE MAIL FROM THE “BEAUTIFUL SOUTH SEAS”.

                                                                                    LOVE –

                                                                                      JIM
