The Newmans and The Lassen Hotel - March 1936

This is another letter from the Newmans.  The daughter Elva sent King a letter on Feb 16, 1936.   Here her mother Jessie mentions she played a piano recital and asks King for postage stamps and a nice silk shawl.  The Lassen Hotel renovation was mentioned and a newspaper clipping included.  The Lassen was right across from the Pan American Cafe.

The letter was copied as a jpeg file since it was so nicely typed which would make it harder to look up later in a word search.
