One letter from Raymond James Graeff and Susan Prowell Graeff to Leonard Eugene Graeff dated January 16, 1944. Raymond writes that they have had snow, and all the children have been having fun playing in it. Mentions Betty Schultz was playing outside for two hours. Bill Hogentogler died on the 15th. Raymond believes it was a result of Bright's disease. The battery on Leonard's car will not take a charge and will need to be replaced. Raymond promises to get a price on new batteries but believes that Leonard may want to sell the car since there expense of it far outlasts the use he is getting out of it. Raymond took Susan to Dr. Pilgram for treatments for her head cold and she is starting to feel better. They had a roast for dinner the first one since he was home for Christmas. Malinda called the house to invite them over for a roast chicken but she had to eat it alone. Malinda asl reported that the Huttons stopped by. Bertha Hutton was apparently sick but is feeling better. Ida Kauffman fell down her basement stairs and has a small cut on her forehead but is otherwise okay. Raymond is glad to hear that Leonard had such a nice time on his last leave eating dinner with his friend's family.
