     Coming home, they fastened their Coupe securely behind the Mack's Cab, and rode home to Andrew, Ia. where a reception was given them in the home there, and on St Valentine's Day, Feb 14th, they drove to their home at 1251 Beech St. Waterloo.

There had been a band of ladies who serenaded them the night before at Andrew, they were members of the A.L.L.A.
