Editor: Please find enclosed my check for renewal. Do not change my address. I am at present on an island in the Indian Ocean and having the paper forwarded to me from my office in Washington. I usually get two copies every two weeks and enjoy reading it very much. I know I am the only person on this island getting the Rappahannock News and expect I am the only one in the Indian Ocean.
