WI GETS LETTER The following letter was received by Mrs. Gordon R. Taylor: "I have received the copy of Auburn's history that ' the Women's Institute has un- dertaken as a responsibility to put together and update. Looking over your publication has provided me with much pleasure and a great deal of information about the many fine people that made and, now, make up that community. I sincerely trust that the Women's Institute will continue to maintain the story of Auburn, although it is a demanding undertaking, for the benefit of the younger people who have not reached that age yet, where they have learned to appreciate the history of. their community. Auburn always will be a place of sentimental interest to me. "Please convey my sincere appreciation to the Auburn Women's Institute. "Sincerely, Peter Patterson, Weston.
