Letter from Cynthia Ruth to Mary Daggett Lake: 1930s

[c.193.]

Dear Mrs Lake

I was out to your home Tuesday hoping to see you cant deliver in person, my heartfelt thanks for your New Year's greeting and that lovely handkerchief I found a very brave little dog keeping guard over your home - he told me as well as he could that I was on a proverbial "needle in the haystack business."

that you were always going about making bright other dark places -

I do appreciate your kindly friendship -

"Kind Hearts are the Garden's Kind Thoughts are the Roots Kind Words are the Flowers Kind Deeds are the Fruits".

It's never too late to wish A Happy New Year and all its trimmings - and "I do mean You".

Very sincerely -

Cynthia Ruth.
