One letter from Frank B. White to L. Jean White dated December 29, 1944. Sent care of Fleet Post Office in San Francisco, California. Mentions reading a book complied from letters sent to the President. He enclosed a copy of one letter writing, "while not the funniest was one easy to copy." He also mentions that he is glad Jean has not gotten the cold that everyone at home seems to have and that she should be careful now that she is working at the post office.
