NOME HOSPITALITY IS
MUCH APPRECIATED
In a ‘thank you’ note to Mrs.
Waldheim and daughter, Ellen,
Nome was very much appreciated.
Dear Mrs. Waldheim, Ellen:
Yes, we arrived in Anchorage
yesterday about 2:30 p.m. and so
very much enjoyed the hospitality
of Nome people. We were unpre
pared for the friendliness and
special effort made by everyone
with whom we came in contact
to see that we enjoyed ourselves.
And that we certainly did!
On arriving home we found
evidence of plenty of rain having
fallen here, tho the garden things
had grown about two inches. The
tomatoes in greenhouse may even I
get ripe this summer! I have a ,
large bowl of pansies here which I
I gathered this evening, but I ’
can’t say this is a remarkable
season for gardening.
Thank you and other Nome
residents for all effort expended
in our behalf. It is a pleasant mem
ory.
Sincerely
Malita & Harold Hitchen
