Text: “Monday night. My Own Dearest — Two letters from you today! And my but I did enjoy them, read them over three or four times each. So you finally got to go duck hunting? That’s fine - -but too bad about the only one you shot. I believe I would have been tempted to resist such a crook as that d&d fellow! That’s funny but I don’t suppose it was so funning when it happened. They say duck hunting is great here when the season opens, and some few have already been going. They shoot them out in the gulf, and in the rest water pools toward the west end of the island. The fraternity jeweler was here tonight, with all sorts of good looking jewelry — and it surely was a temptation to keep from spending what little money I have. I did get a pretty pair of cuff buttons with the ATO crest on them for George’s Xmas present. It seems like a long time about to be buying Xmas presents, doesn’t it? My, how I do wish I could be there, or you here, to give you the nights, the days, all the time. I go to sleep every night thinking of you, of the good times we’ve had together, of the much frequented trysting place, — and of how much I miss you and need you. I am glad you are not giving dates to just anybody, and that you are being so good, and yet I would not expect anything else. How anybody can have the nerve to try to push himself as that boy seems to be doing, is more than I can understand. Of course, I don’t have him or anybody else for falling, and falling hard — but he doesn’t really know how high he is aiming. I love you, I love you again. Yes, we have started dissecting, Pat and I have a real skinny negro man we’ve already dissected all the superficial fascia, nerves, arteries and veins of the groin and thigh, and are ready to start tomorrow thru deep fascia to the muscles of the leg. It’s very interesting work, but that odor of formaldehyde and carbolic acid is surely hard to get off your hands. Anyway, I’m glad our specimen is a male, cause they don’t have so much fat to remove, and the muscles are firmer. We haven’t heard from our quizzes yet. Have a […][ quiz Friday in Histology, one more oral, one […] written, and we have practical (microscopic work). It’s nearly studying time, and by the time I go mail this it will be, so kiss me good night — real, really — now I can study. I love you the most Your own and yours only, Felix.”
