About MeCorrespondence from Marguerite McBey to James McBey, dated 26 June 1948. Marguerite writes that the town is "cool and uncluttered", that she did some shopping, and asks for McBey to attach receipts to copies "in the 'Water' envelope under 'Jalobey'". She also hopes McBey is not too unhappy.
