HITLER'S FAVORITE PICTURE IS SAFE
Sept. 27, 1952
Dear Sugar Foot:
Munny and I returned last evening from a short visit with Mr. and
Mrs. Walter J. Behmer at Culver, Indiana, on Lake Maxinkuckee or
however it is spelled. Had a fine time. . .
Yesterday, we got an early start home. I wanted to see a little
private bank at San Pierre, Ind., away up north of Lafayette on
old No. 43. It used to be a private bank, but I found out they
had changed to a state bank just this last January. Didn't stay
there long.
Munny wanted to see Elizabeth Shoaf Purnell (Red's widow) who
lives at Attica, Ind. . . . (She) was giving a party tonight for
another old woman friend of ours, and who is her cousin, the
former Miss Sina Booe; then became Sina B. Songer; then Sina B.
Ross; and now has a new husband, some Frenchman whose name I do
not remember and am too hurried to look up. They were married
about the first of this year. She met him at Hot Springs,
Arkansas--and is he a honey? He is. (After seeing Elizabeth we
came home by way of Veedersburg, where Sina and said husband now
live. Sina's parents struck oil years and years ago, and built a
rather pretentious house in Veedersburg.
