Windfall

(1954 January)

I had a windfall yesterday and I must tell you! LL and Mr. Sharp somewhat laughed at me when I rescued old thermostat and took it to Sears to see if it could be resold. But nothing but respect for me when at Kiwanis Mr. Lloyd gave LL $6.00 for me from it! More than the whole furnace brought at junk yard, $2.90. (Of course I have [saved] some [parts of it] for trash burning.).
