Just resettled. I saw the girl in her new home and think she is well pleased. If she will do her best will have good home.
I have made contact with the families who took in Emily's brothers, Edwin and Fred and look forward to meeting the McMichael and Corscadden families this summer.
I hope somebody out there has fresh leads for me.
