Dear Folks, We often think of you and the nice things that were said at the picnic. I'm sure we do don't [sic] deserve all that praise but it was nice to hear. We got here in fine shape, not a thing scratched, not a dish broke. It goes slow in getting things in place. I go with [--------] nite & help clean up. We think we'll like it here. Haven't had any callers yet but so many have come to the theater & welcomed us. Thanks for everything, from Sidney & Elise."
