An Appreciation
Published by the Charles E. Putney Memorial Association
What delightful hosts are they— Life and Love! Lingeringly I turn away, This late hour, yet glad enough They have not withheld from me Their high hospitality. So, with face lit with delight And all gratitude, I stay Yet to press their hands and say, "Thanks,—So fine a time! Good night." —James Whitcomb Riley
