Dear Robert.
...
        We are at last getting fairly well settled in our new home.
...
        Last week Friday Warren was running in the dark and twisted his ankle. It broke the small bone (fibula) on the outside of his left ankle. We had it x-rayed and the doctor put a walking cast on his foot and leg. He is getting around nicely and walks freely on it.

        We are interested in your leaning toward teaching in Nyasaland. It would be wonderful if you could do something to help one of those emerging countries. When I was your age I wanted to become a medical missionary but had to give it up because of my rheumatic heart condition.
...
        We are glad you passed your qualifying exams. Yours with love
Mom & Dad
