So you are probably right in preparing to build a great airplane to be
used in defending your country. Such noble intentions, my boy, fill
my heart with pride. I am going to drive out to the farm to see your
mother next Sunday if I can get time. Want to have a talk with her and
tell her of your brilliant achievement. It makes every mother's heart
glad to know that her boy is trying to accomplish something. I feel
sure that you are going to accomplish your aims, Robert, and I am with
you always.
Sincerely yours,
J.H. Kennelworth.
After hearing from Mr. Kennelworth, Robert was very happy, and of
course, had to share his happiness with Marie.
February 5, 1927.
Sweet Marie:
I am very happy on this Saturday night, and nothing could make me
happier than to be with you. I feel that I have won a great victory. I
have put my theories up to Mr. Kennelworth, explained all that I could
about my discoveries of the cycles in the Bible, and urged him to buy
some cotton and make back the money that he lost in 1919. He said that
he had faith in me and the Bible so he bought 500 bales of July cotton
at 13.70 as I suggested.
While the market hasn't gone up much since I bought mine, at the same
time it is holding steady and I am sure that it is going up. I believe
Mr. Kennelworth is going to make a lot of money on his cotton and I
want to see him make it because he is an honest, whole-hearted man
and has done everything he could to help me. The $500 bonus he gave
me in January enabled me to have margin enough to buy the cotton, and
if I make a great success I will feel that I owe him a great debt of
gratitude, because he has really helped me get a start.
Don't think I fail to appreciate all you are doing, my little
sweetheart, and the faith that you have in me. I am looking forward to
the day when I will make Wall Street hum with you standing by my side.
Nothing would be left for me to work for if it wasn't the hope of
having you, and the happiness that you can bring. Money will not mean
anything except to accomplish my purpose, help my country and buy the
things that will make you happy.
Love is indeed the greatest thing in the world and you are the
greatest woman in the world. With your love, there is nothing that I
cannot do. You are my last thought when I go to sleep at night and the
first when I wake in the morning. Everything I do, I always think is
for you. Your sweet little letters are always so encouraging and your
supreme faith in me urges me on to greater things.
With all the love that my heart can send, I am as ever
Your loving
Robert.
