Arnold's Story: February 18, 1950

Dolly thanks Arnold for his wedding gift (silver tablespoons to match their silver set). As the bride, she had the responsibility to write the thank-you notes. Etiquette requires she write them within one to three months after the wedding, and she is about two weeks out here. Dolly and Wayne had a short honeymoon on account of the needs of his dry-cleaning business.

Arnold and Dolly's father Bill had a 60th birthday on the 16th and their mother Hazel is throwing a party tonight, the 18th, for family and friends.

Dolly and Wayne's residence at 1122-B East Garfield, Glendale, no longer exists; it was torn down for the Glendale Community College (Garfield Campus).
