From Nancy C. Russell to Mr. Malcolm S. MacKay
Gilcrease Museum
December 3 1926 Mr. Malcolm S. MacKay, Tenafly, New York. Dear Friends: The pencil sketch of Charlie’s received. It was so nice of you to send it to me. I want you to know just where it is going. We had an addition built on to the studio this year for a gallery. It’s a log room 28 x 40 ft. so now the studio is to be made into a memorial to Charlie and that sketch will add to the interest of the col- lection. It is lovely to have and I thank you. I hope to go to see my father in Pasadena, leaving here about the 15th. I will put Jack in school down there. I don’t want to be here this Christmas. Love to the MacKay family, Sincerely,
