Transcript

Pasadena, California. June 16, 1932. Mrs. T. I. Sappington, 419 Eighth Avenue South, Great Falls, Montana. Dear Marie: Your letter telling me you are not well has been re- ceived. I am sorry to hear you are under the weather but mighty glad things have eased up a bit for you. You must take care of yourself. I under- stand absolutely and would much rather you would not come to the Lake when you are not perfectly well. The place is in such confusion as we are leaving to- morrow but I wanted you to know it is all right and I hope you will be well soon. Sincerely yours,
