Dearest brother:- It is Thurs. June 18, the day when papa will land at Havre. I am getting so anxious now to see him & do hope he won't forget to write me from Paris. I hope you & mama are not too lonesome, we will very soon be home now. Tell mama I am feeling quite alright again got up yesterday & have practiced today. Got a letter from Aunt Kizzie [Kezia Hayward (1862-1959)] & one from Stella yesterday. Tell mama she will get another letter on the next mail, next Monday.

  1. Stella is Stella Beesley Dahlquist, daughter of Adelbert and Adelaide Pugsley Beesley. Adelbert is the son of Ebinizer Beesley, who has written a lot of songs in the LDS Hymnbook, such as "High on a Mountain Top". Ebinizer also started Beesley Music Company on Main street almost to 1st S. in SLC, where Norinne and Marilyn once worked. Del went on a mission to the Samoan Islands and brought home wood from an old ship wreck. He made a Xylophone out of it and would play it at Pugsley Reunions. Per Norinne.
