Additional Details

". . . We've been in & out of town a great deal and I got back just too late this time.
"The Taylors are now the proud parents of a new daughter who arrived just a few weeks ago.
"Next time try to give us a little more notice so we can at least try to juggle our G.E. chores around. Most of my travels are at the behest of G.E. and not vacation jaunts but they are reasonable (at times). . . ."
From the files of the Dollard family.
