Conner reports that he has been getting a lot of mail, and more than all of the men in the company. He writes that "every time we have a mail call most of the boys says Conner will get them all so I tell them that what I want while I am here and they say well we want some to." Conner dotes on Lola Gene, and expresses how we wishes to return and see her again. He tells everyone "hello" and closes the letter.
