Dear Marion,
This weekend has been lots of fun but it would have been more fun if you had been along. Saw “Junior Miss”* yesterday and wandered up and down Fifth Ave. Jane & Forest went bus riding. I’ll hate to see them leave this afternoon – but think what I’ll get in their place – oh joy? Take good care of J.B. + R.H.S. for me,
Love, Jane
* “Junior Miss” was a Broadway comedy playing at the Majestic Theater.
