             to Merrigan’s. Brought them home. George and I took another ride.
             He told me that after he took up his course in aviation, he was
             coming back for me. He said he hoped I still felt the same towards
             him. He said to write this down as I wouldn’t forget it. He’s swell.
             Said some fellow was going to be awful lucky and he wanted it to
             be him. He’s coming to visit me. After he’s got a job, he wants to
             be married if I will.
