Allison Letter to the Paynes Upon Purchase



Sept. 6, 1963

My Dear Mr. Payne and family,

We welcome you to the Wreckage, and hope that it will bring you the joy, peace and rich living which we have enjoyed through the years. I am sure that you will carry on the fine traditions for which it has been noted for a long time. Over 50,000 people have passed thru its front door.

Mrs. Allison and I are invited out to breakfast at 8am and you are welcome to come in and prepare your breakfast in the Wreckage as we shall have a fire going in the stove and fire place. We shall wait for the morning’s mail at eleven a.m. and then bid farewell to our beloved Wreckage.

Sincerely,

Guy and Virginia Allison
