Halleck, Indianapolis, to Ruth, Brazil, Indiana, 1916

Containers:
Box 2, Folder 10
Scope and content:

"My dear Rose"; doubts he should visit this Saturday; suggests he is "in process of being reasoned out of single life". In the same envelope is apparently a draft of a letter Ruth wrote to Halleck in reply, suggesting they "quiet down" and be friends awhile, for his love has not yet aroused hers; "how in a muddle my poor thoughts do get– words can be such jesters and make the so seem not, and the not seem so."
