about Wendell Williams mother rec
emily dying. I apologize for not
getting the full story.

Here's another note. 1t says
something about Mrs. Pearl Mon

Come to think Of it I believe I so
remember that Mrs. Monday said
something about having to go to
Kansas City because Of this illness.

these notes straight. Will you loan

carry on, and build up a business. I
believe their grand opening is some
time next week. I've passed their
store every day and the two of them
