TO MY FRIENDS...
On Saturday, March 10 I will turn my business over
to Mr. and Mrs. Milton Rosenberg, including the agency
_ for the Kerrville Bus Company. Thus ends my present
fl business career which began on August 23, 1928. As I
■ write these lines, realization routes (o me again that it
was the good will and patronage of the people of La
Grange, and elsewhere, that made my success possible.
Without customers no business can succeed, and I want
to take this last opportunity to thank each and everyone
of you. Please believe me, I am grateful for everything.
Terminating my services as agent for the Kerrville Bus
Company has proven very trying; I loved the work, and
feel that it was a privilege to have been a small part of
this wonderful organization. May I ask that y»u give to
my successors the same support that you gave to me;
with that their success will be assured And so, thanks
again a million times.
