1962/04/17: C. E. Godshalk to Myrtle Shaughnessy (3.85888)
Date: April 17 1962Creator: Godshalk, Clarence E.
Type: Document
Description:Letter from C. E. Godshalk to Myrtle (Mrs. Howard) Shaughnessy stating he hasn't contacted her about the memorial tree because the new board chairman, Mrs. Zurcher, feels the Arboretum should not accept memorial trees due to the necessity of continuing maintenance. He suggests that instead of a memorial tree, Mrs. Mulloy's friends may choose to contribute to a memorial book fund for the purchase of rare books for the library. Books purchased from this fund will be marked so they may be identified. The new library will be opened and dedicated on Arbor Day the next spring. Since talking to Mrs. Shaughnessy, Godshalk and a friend bought 35 acres in Michigan.
