Mrs. Russell Thanks Willis for Work on Bill for Memorial
From Nancy C. Russell to Mr. E. S. Barrie
Gilcrease Museum
October 1, 1927 Grand Central Art Galleries, Vanderbilt Avenue, New York City. Attention – Mr. Barry. Dear Mr. Barry: Regarding the Russell Memorial Exhibition – I am glad you have not given a definite date to me for this Fall, because it has been a perfectly hectic year, especially the past four months. I find it will be physically impossible for me to visit New York this year. I have had no mail for the past three weeks, as it is all going to my California home where I thought I would be by now. There may be a letter there from you, regarding the number of Bronzes delivered to you, from the Roman Bronze Works. I have had a number of notices from them of de- liveries. Please keep a true record of the bronze you have received. I hope to be, by October 15th at “Trails End”, 725 Michigan Boulevard, Pasadena, California. Please let me hear from you there. Sincerely, R:AMB
