My dear Mrs. Bevelheimer/--
I'd like to slip up & ring your door bell today. I have thought of you & Mr. Bevelheimer so much especially since my last visit there. I did enjoy it so much--
Tell Mr. B. I am anxious to hear of his going to church for I am sure he can hear Mr Albertson. I am having a good rest. Am asked to do some mission work before I leave Calif but I am not sure what is right, about it--I am just praying for the Lord to direct & I will gladly follow--with Love - Susan E. Allen
[written above message panel] Mark 13:35--How blessed it is to be ready--
