Dear Mrs. Richert[1],
Though I would
drop you a card as I have just time enough while I am here. We are making very
good time and so far had a nice trip[2]. I
won’t have to change again so shouldn’t have any trouble. By now
Love
Lre[3]

Addressed to: Mrs. Richert; 1130 T. St,; Fresno, Calif. Postmarked April 28,
1944.

This might not refer to just the Fresno to Sacramento segment, but it might. Today,
we probably wouldn’t consider making the distance from Fresno to Sacramento any
sort of journey, but it should be noted that in the 40’s it still was a driving
adventure.

Sender unknown at this time. The first letter of the name looks like an “L” but
a handwriting comparison with a previous mentioned “Lillie” clearly shows they
are not the same person.
