Edith Russell's Letter to Dean
In late 1971 Edith Russell, who lived on Main Street with her husband George, agreed to give me a list of some of the businesses in her memory. She hand-wrote this in early 1972. I ask about doctors. You can see that she provided a nice list. I never used any of the doctors in the book. (I claim lack of space always). Most of the business references were fact-checked and several are sources in the book. The reference to locations that were current in 1972, will be difficult to locate fifty years hence.
Some of the extra notes are my edit-helps for the book. Time is also causing a loss of contrast for the document. Side note: Edith also made a very strong dandelion wine every spring.
