I cannot tell you how deeply touched I was to receive such a present from you and it will help to keep alive warm and affec tionate members of the many projects you and members of the Ukrainian National Women’s League of America have engaged in with the Council. Please convey to Mrs. Lotot- sky and any others who may have had a share in this charm ing present, my grateful and heartfelt thanks. Cordially yours, Mrs. Yarnall Jacobs Honorary President 26 НАШЕ ЖИТТЯ — ГРУДЕНЬ, 1964 Видання C оюзу Українок A мерики - перевидано в електронному форматі в 2012 році . A рхів C У A - Ню Йорк , Н .
