Although it's been nearly three-quarters of a century since I last saw her, I remember "Siddy" quite well and was distressed to read of her passing. I also knew Lewis and Brown and "Son" and "Hop," as well, as Mr. and Mrs. Porter. They were all fine people. I suppose "Son" is the only one left who might remember me, but I hope that all of you will accept my deepest sympathy.
