Dear Ralph, I don't suppose you need my receipt for your records but it won't hurt to have it. Thanks for trying. I am grateful indeed for your sending the records of the other kind, the
Scarlett
records. They have not yet arrived but should turn up in a day or so. I shall enjoy having them and having them in my
GWTW
collection. Sincerely,
Rick
