A DAUGHTER'S THANKS

David Cutler

The Merchant Magazine 573 So. Lake Ave.

Pasadena, Calif.

Dear Dave,

Enclosed please find newspaper clippings which my daughter, Mae Belle Pendergast, women's editor of the Sacramento (Calif.) Union wrote regarding her deep appreciation for the friends who contributed towards the purchase of the redwood grove for her late father and my late husband.

It would please me very much if you will mention this in The Merchant.

This would show many friends how the family feels, for as you have heard, I have been very ill for over six months, not able to write or go to the dedication of the grove, rvhich made me very sad.

Sincerely

Gertude LeMaster (Mrs.) C. D. LeMaster

Gentlemen: I enjoy your magazine very much, it keeps me in touch with what is going on.

I was in the lumber business in San Diego before your magazine was first published, in \922. I knew Jack Dionne, The Merchant's founder; Phil Hart and Floyd Denier. I joined Hoo-Hoo Club #3 in \922 and was Snark in 192z1. My number is 32462. I am still a member of Club #3. Now you can see why I enjoy it so much. Every once in a while you come up with an old one. fn your last issue was a picture of Orrie Hamilton (Jan., p. 43).

Yours T?uly, Joseph Restine 2686 No. Waterman Ave. San Bernardino, Calif. 92404
