J.2150 Boulevard,August 26, 1951.Dear Pay:-We were very much pleased to have yourletter of August 1st., and the write-up ofBrittain's 183rd, Anniversary. V/e think theSelebration was well observed and the write-upof same very descriptive. We regretted thatwe could not attend, but we felt that we shouldat least send our greetings on that occasion.Pay, you asked us about the Andrews windowor the cost of same. We do not remember thecircumstances concerning it, but Coral or Imawould probably knov; the details and could tellyou about it.As we remember there is a window there inmemory of Mother and Pather Long given by thechildren. The Bronze Plaque v;as presented byus individually. We are sorry that in remodeling Brittain the original architecture wasdestroyed, which of course dp^i^ away with theColonial type.We had a very enjoyable visit with theBurgess's on Thursday and went to dinner withthem at the "Old Mill". We were very muchpleased to see Giijen as she had written us thatshe would be at home this past week and so wemade an effort to go while she was at home.It is remarkable what that School has done forher in every way. She seemed to be so thrilledto have one of her former classmates visiting herWe have some hopes of getting down toNorth Carolina around the middle of October,but aur plans are not definite as we neverknow when we can get av/ay from here.Hoping that we may see you in the nearfuture and with our love to you and Madge,v/0 areYours,•' -'A-!!i-' ' ■ ''.il/.
