Dear Mr. Fisher,

Since leaving Bronxville we have visited many countries, France, Switzerland, Germany, Holland, Belgium and now England, but in no country have we experienced more hospitality and had a better time than with you in Bronxville.

We cannot easily thank you for the friendliness and hospitality which you showed us, but we send you this note as a token that we have not forgotten it. Each and every one of us reserves a separate place for Bronxville in his Jamboree memories and hopes that he will some day have the opportunity of thanking you personally.  Please express our appreciation to the manager of the Gramatan Hotel and the Tap Restaurant, and also to the Athletics Director of your High School for the cordialities shown us by them
