My Dear Mr. Pitassi,
My faint words
can in no way express my gratification
& pleasure at our two new windows.
All the members of out parish of Easter-
day were just halted & surprised. I
did not let them know anything
until the windows were in. The coloring
of the blue robes on each figure is
just beautiful and the delicate
shades of light coming in is
wonderful. I really believe from the
remarks of many yesterday I shall
have more orders soon. The window
I wish to get now is the big one
over the choir. You have all the
dimensions etc for it haven't you. Tell
me how much that window will
cost. I have not even a prospect yet
but you can never tell what may come
so keep me in mind I may surprise you
so happy & pleased. You will have your
check very soon from the First Dep't of the Bank
Sincerely F. Jerome FinnTranscriber
