CALDER PAINTER HILL ROAD R.F.D. ROXBURY, CONN., U.S.A. TEL & TEL. WOODBURY 122-2 May 17/45 Dear Keith Your VE day clipping, check & note arrived yesterday. Of course it seems just a little sad, from my standpoint, but it was all very gay while it lasted - and one shouldnt expect such things to last forever. I hope you made a good dicker with Mr. Locktite (the 2nd syllable is the more attractive) and will be able to come and share your loaf with us. I haven't made your fish yet because I was waiting to get a bit of rod suitable in weight - but I will have it for you soon. I am sending you a little drawing to commemorate this lamentable occasion Cordially Yours Sandy
