Catonsville, Maryland.

My dear Mrs. Hogan:- I am enclosing herewith brief sketches
of my American Ancestors, as requested in your letter of
March 31st, 1926.

I have made these sketches very brief, so if they are not
just what is desired, won’t you please advise me so that I
may try again?

I regret exceedingly it was impossible for me to attend the
Annual Meeting and Luncheon in Washington.

Will you please send me a permit for insignia of the
Daughters of the Barons of Runnemede?  I have not yet
purchased the insignia and wish to do so.

With cordial good wishes, I am,

Sincerely yours,


Mrs. Allen Russell Davis,
402 Morgan Street,
Harriman, Tennessee.

May 20th, 1926.
