Saturday P.M. We are steaming along. Today the sea is smooth and I feel fine but it is the first day. Thursday night and all day Friday it was stormy, and the ship rolled, I couldn't take it and played the lady taking my two meals in bed. Did not eat lunch. Was so glad to get your card. I am sending a letter home which will eventually reach you. Hope you and all the children are well. M.L.H.
