Jewish girl who joined us in the 7th grade.  They lived up in Dry Pond.  One day last summer - I don't think you were with us, were you? - we called as we drove past at her old home and spoke to her old parents.  Her mother wanted our address for she said Fanny's younger son was in Wash D. C.  So this was the result.  After Fanny died her younger sister took her 2 boys and brought them up.  The boy, about 25, has been going to Geo. Wash summer & winter for a couple of years, studying electrical engineering.  He was in radar work in the army during the war and has his G.I. money to get an education with.  He seemed a fine chap, very Jewish in looks, but sweet and nice and very bright.  Celia was proud to show him.  They were both much interested in you and examined your pictures and wanted to know all about your studies.  It was odd to see how much Celia knew of Stoughton folks that we went to school with, altho she has lived so long in Boston and has never had any social relations with them.  The family, Jewish and immigrants, lived on the edge of our circle and watched us with most attentive eyes, I expect.  I treated them to cake and coffee and some pawpaws that Mrs Allard had given us, and they went off at 10.30 much pleased, apparently.  Hope you enjoyed H. Wallace. 

Love Mother

Dolores' mother (D wasn't home) is worried because she is afraid to have D. go down to the church and practise alone evenings.  D. very stubbornly insists she will go.  I told her mother to let her go it - she would work it off her system.  D.
