1932 Mar. 31 from Mrs. K.R. Tompkins to Dearest sweet daughter

 File — Box: 0134.02, Item: 149

Scope and Contents

Talks about enclosing sample of goods. Thought the piece would make a very charming summer dress. 3 yards will be quite enough. She was happy Mary & Sarah spent Easter with their Grandma. Their visits give Grandma more pleasure than anything else that comes with her life. Talks about Ben & school and he being in Athletic contest and male chorus - in line for honors. Paul didn't go back to school – he works in a café – makes his board and a few dollars a week. Thanked her for the lovely dress. P.S. She made Ben shorts of fine – and green broadcloth, and they are beautifully tailored w/elastic and fitted high yoke. He is very proud of them! Aff. Mamma
