Today I am 2 years in America. How the time flies!

Len Small, for whom Leonard was electioneering, died yesterday after an operation.

He [Leonard] won a case in the Illinois Supreme Court against several big Chicago lawyers.

This week we saw the “Great Ziegfield” with William Powell and Myrna Loy. Great.

Perhaps this article sheds some light on the subject:
