Prophecy Chicago, Illinois May 28, 1961 Dear Diary, It has been eleven months since I made my last entry in my diary. Since then I have made a trip to Chicago to nurse my sick aunt, as I am the only first class nurse in my family. When I got on the plane I was very much surprised to see that the pilot was Dalton's own Wayne Jones. He told me he had been in a contest, which proved him to be the fastest flier in the world. I was very pleased to get a letter from one of my classmates, the former Sue Bandy, asking me to visit her while I was there. I did, and it seems she and Ramon Burnett are doing fine. They own the largest hotel in Chicago. When I arrived in Madisonville, they informed me of an Alumni Banquet being held at Dalton. I attended the banquet and got to see Anna Lois Hart, she is still riding around in that certain five passenger coupe. Another one of my classmates I saw was James Harris, he and Betty are married. They live in Dalton. James told me Raymond Martin was playing basketball for the Philadelphia Warriors. I saw Dot Neisz. She is now married and living at Providence on Baptist Hill. Dot told me Francis Adkins could not attend the banquet. She finally got that blond headed guy from Kirkwood Springs, and is busy taking care of those darling children of hers. Dot also told me H. B. Ashley was living in Evansville and owns three department stores. I saw Raymond Edmiston. He is doing fine. He is married, has a large bank account, and three children. By- Dorothy Hardwick 12
