This folder contains letters written by Agnes Garretson to Albert. They primarily concern local news and updates about Ron and David (D.Phil or "Peanut"). She attends a panel on postwar Russian-American relations and shares her experiences and opinions, which she calls "almost pro-Russian". She also attends a panel discussion concerning what kind of peace will be demanded from Japan. Many of her letters concern panels which she has attended or news about the war which she has encountered. On March 1 she notifies Albert that her brother John "Peter" Garretson, the Wing Commander of Air Group Six, is missing in action in the Pacific, along with his entire Air Group. She often expresses her anxiety about waiting for news about Peter. She reacts to Churchill's "Prime Minister's Review" concerning the German V-1 Bombs ("Buzz bombs") and expresses her concern about Albert's safety. She comments on the growing rift between President Roosevelt and Henry Wallace. She expresses her joy at Ellison "Cotton Ed" Smith's loss in the 1944 senatorial democratic primary election. In November she expresses her opinion on the outcome of the 1944 election. By the end of the year she is preparing to give birth again.
