My dear Father
I have been expecting a
visit from you before this & hope you have
not given it up
If consistent I should like to have a leave
of absence that would enable me to start from here
on the 10th or 12th of the month if Jenny

should
telegraph for me. I think by that time that
I shall have everything running here so that I could
leave for a short (time ten or fifteen days) I should
like very much to return again to this command
& will leave ask for a leave at all if you
do not think it advisable
Your Affectionate son
