Dawn Osborne —Hope you enjoyed the holiday, Dawn. Mary Smith —Your cousin will be able to tell you all about the trip, Mary. It was fun.

Percy Erceg—Thank you for the letter and all the news, Percy. How did the shows go? Have any luck?

Frank Underwood—Glad Tapuhi followers arrived in plenty of time for the train, Frank. I believe the floods caused you all a lot of worry on the morning we left.
