One letter addressed to William E. Johnson from Roseann Johnson dated July 15, 1966. Mentions watching two films; one by Jacques Tati and another entitled, "A Married Woman," which made no sense to her. States that "Lolita" is playing in a week. She jests that she has sympathy pains for Bill as they both now have insomnia. Roseann closes her letter hoping to "write a more decent" one tomorrow.
