She discusses phone calls from Saigon, writing articles for both AP and the New York Herald Tribune, a trip to a military instillation, her financial situation, having new clothes made, her new maid, and her health. The letter is dated 1958, but Keever arrived in Vietnam in Febrary 1962, so the date must be a typo.
