CAMPBELL COUSINS CORRESPONDENCE
26 Sarona Avenue,
Rochester, N. Y.,
October 10, 1923.
Dear
Cousins:
Cousin Will
Selph, we want to express our thanks and
appreciation for that beautiful book. It is one you
may well be proud of,- "Originating Editor". We
are very, very, grateful for our copy.
Cousins,‑ I feel as if I were
broadcasting over the radio. How we would love to see
all the "listeners in"! Next to seeing is
correspondence,‑ a lost art with many of us.
I think most of the Cousins
in Pennsylvania have seen my husband and our family.
Our oldest boy is Robert Campbell Mitchell, born July
13, 1919; the second a boy, is Vernon Parker Mitchell,
born October 28, 1920,‑ he was named for an uncle on
his father's side of the family. We have lived in
Rochester (the real flower city) ever since we were
married September 25, 1916.
My husband is electric
motion‑picture machine operator at Fay's Theater here.
He is business manager for the operators employed in
every theater in this city.
We live about three miles
from the center of the city but we keep an automobile
which we both drive so while enjoying the quiet of a
farm, we have the city conveniences which include a
radio. Every one of us enjoy that,‑ the children like
the good music and bedtime stories. We often hear from
Texas but cannot get Florida, even with our Campbell
and Shewman families there. How we miss them!
Cousins, as this is our last
message this year, we want to wish you all a Merry,
Merry Christmas and a most Happy and Prosperous New
Year.
With love to
all,
COUSIN RUTH
CAMPBELL MITCHELL
