It appears that they got Arnold's letter of July 22 already the next day, the 23rd. That really is wonderful mail service. Seventy years later there is no improvement on that; rather a decline, I would say.
The enclosures Hazel mentions are missing. Hazel's kitchen remodeling job has begun but there are still some details to finish.
