Dear Marie,
I received your note this morning I am about alright now & was in the city this afternoon. What a surprise I got when Rory Campbell popped in yesterday I sent you the Pass and when the nurse came & told me that there was somebody to see me & had no pass I was puzzled who it was. So I borrowed a Pass of another chap there was Rory So when you come don’t forget the pass I will be able to go out at 2 pm so will wait you at the hospital. It is now bedtime so goodnight. Love from Dodo
