COPY February 21, 1935 Dear Mother: Here is a clipping from this morning's Post which I will be glad to have you send to Bob when you are through with it. This Thirty Hour Bill tied me up for sixteen days of hearings. I attended every day all of the time and heard every witness, and my apparent obstinacy is based on the evidence. Of course, the fact that four Members of the Committee held different views caused me to pause about my own judgment, and so my decision is the result of extra caution. Best love. Mrs. Chauncey G. Austin, 91 South Main Street, St. Albans, Vermont.
