5:30 Tuesday<\/p>\n

Dearest,<\/p>\n

I tried to find time to write you last night but had to much work to do.<\/p>\n

I am still dreaming about last weekend. The only thing I didn’t like about it was the parting Sun. night. I certainly did feel like ________ when I left the station and still do. I doubt if that feeling goes away before next Wed.<\/p>\n

\"Chicago's<\/a>
Chicago’s Union Station, where Tom picked up Zoe and returned her to her train.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The work is pilling up fast and I have a English test tomorrow over Bacon’s essays. I finished what I was supposed to in the Odyssey on the L coming back Sun. night. I hope you made it back on time.<\/p>\n

\"Noyes<\/a>
Noyes Street “L” Station in Evanston, where Tom would get off to walk to his fraternity house a few blocks away.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I have to learn another German conjugation for tomorrow. The farther I go in that the more mixed up I am.<\/p>\n

Dick (the boy who entertained you while I was changing clothes) was quite impressed with you but I couldn’t blame him.<\/p>\n

I didn’t get any swats last night, but no body did so that will mean a double dose next Mon.<\/p>\n

Keep your fingers crossed that Northwestern beats Notre Dame Sat. because I don’t want to go to school Mon.<\/p>\n

There goes the bell, see you Thurs. night<\/p>\n

With love,<\/p>\n

Tom.<\/p>\n

P.S. What kind of a bet do you want to make for the Illinois, N.U. game?<\/p>\n
