CCC Vol. 1 Rpt. 2 p. 67 Mabel Shipman Shaw

When the first book of letters came I read it through to the end before I laid it down and it was such a treat to hear from so many all at once. We are looking forward to receiving the new letters with even greater pleasure as so many others will be added. The pictures too will be fine.

I wish it might have been possible for all of you to have attended the "Cousins' Dinner", which we had the pleasure of having at our house this year, on September 28th. The day was perfect and nearly every one came in cars.

We were all very glad to have with us, for the first time, Cousin Helen Congdon of Tacoma and felt that we had always known her.

Our next annual gathering is to be with Cousin Charles Congdon and family at their summer home, near the Delaware Water Gap.

Instead of writing a long letter this time, I thought perhaps you might be interested to know who was here for the "Cousins' Dinner", so am sending the list of names on separate page.

Llewelyn and Wilford join in love to you all.
