Hawleyville, Conn. July 5, 1927 Dear Loved Mommy Praised be Jesus Christ and glorious name of Virgin Mary Accept our warm greetings from us your children Pavel and Veronika we would be very glad if these our several lines found you in good health so you could rejoice with us. Lord God in heaven had blessed and gifted us with a handsome healthy little son whom we brought to the temple with help of God and of Mr and Mrs Salonik, i.e. our brother- and sister-in-law and we named him Stefan Well then at least we have something to delight in I hope our mommy that you will take pleasure in it too. But I’m very sorry that we haven’t written you for such a long time but forgive us because we had been always expecting it and we had thought that we would only write you after it Christening was cheerful we had good people invited well we had a full house at the party christening was better and nicer than the wedding party because there in Hudson we had nobody good Give our regards to Imrišo and his wife and children Also give our regards to Vojteško and we wish them good and perfect health Give our regards to our Grandma of Hôrka as well as to uncle and his wife and children and we warmly wish them good and perfect health Give our regards to Aunt Trebatický and her children and we warmly wish them good and perfect health, As to our health I am healthy and Veronka is already gradually recovering we should thank God and I have a little bit of job I can make a bit money so we don’t live in poverty, So our mommy we have nothing else new to write you about Warm and sincere greetings and we wish you good health and remain your faithful children up to our death so good-bye Paul Kovacs, Box 38, Hawleyville, Conn.
