Transcript

April 14, 1 9 3 0. Mr. Ernest E. Quantrelle, 15 Broad Street, New York City. Dear Mr. Quantrelle: Thank you so much for your letter of appreciation of our lovely book! I know you’ll enjoy it. Charlie Beil has worked very sincerely this winter and done some fine things, principally for the Rogers’. He and Mrs. Beil are now in Minnesota and I believe he is to go to a dude ranch in Wyoming, which will be fine for him because of the contacts he can make there. He doesn’t make a great deal of money but he is keeping his head above water and until he is a little better es- tablished, that’s doing pretty well. Sincerely, NCR:ED
