Watered using flat hose with holes- soaker. Carroll Elsey out with some old complaints- he made mistake in handling his life and lost everything- healing practice- shoe manufacturing- two wives- self respect. Just wanted to touch someone- hugged me several times. Came back toward evening and sat down by river absorbing Terradise. He took up a lot of my time but did get letter off to the Washington County Genealogical Society begging them to remove Prettyman from Benoni Hurlbut’s name. Also wrote Dave. Nice letter from John Schroeter. Several returns on 1933 Reunion letter. Need new addresses.
