Dear Harold Williams:-
    Your letter sure brought back a lot of happy memories that was 1912. yes I remember you, but don't think I coule pick you out, but am sure when I see you, it will come back like a flash.
    Would like to see you again Harold any night tween shows. I am going to be in Weston tomorrow the 17th, to judge the Beauty contest but know I won't have a chance to see you there as we have to rush back to do our shows.
    It was nice to hear from you again Harold.
