Dear Mr. Dunbar:

I have been a member of the Club for a number of years, and its Program Chairman for the past two years, and while I have felt in the past that I have given the members and guests some very fine music, I can honestly say that your performance today far surpasses anything we ever had.

I do hope it will be our privilege to have you with us again real soon.

Rotarily yours,
HENRY H. SIMMEN Chairman Speakers Committee New York Rotary Club.
