TO ASSA JOHANNESBURG CENTRE
P.O.BOX 93145,
2143 YEOVILLE

DEAR ASSA, JOH'BURG,

THANK YOU FOR STILL SENDING ME CANOPUS, I HAVE READ THEM WITH INTEREST, BUT SINCE DECEMBER I HAVE MOVED TO SWELLENDAM WITH MY FAMILY AND WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ATTEND THE MEETINGS.

I HAVE BEEN A MEMBER FOR ABOUT 20 YEARS, STARTING WITH MONTY FROM WALKERVILLE.

I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN INTERESTED IN ASTRONOMY AND STILL AM AND WILL REMAIN A MEMBER OF ASSA IN ORDER TO GET MNASSA AND THE HANDBOOK. I HAVE MADE CONTACT WITH JAN HERS, BUT WILL NOT BE ABLE TO GO TO HIS MEETINGS, AS I TURNED 90 LAST OCTOBER, BUT THE INTEREST IS THERE! I PROJECTED THE PART_ECLIPSE OF 4 DECEMBER WITH MY BINOCULARS AND ENJOYED IT WITH MY FAMILY!

SWELLENDAM GETS A LOT OF MIST BUT I SEE VENUS IN THE EARLY MORNING!

WITH BEST WISHES FOR CLEAR SKIES,

MANY THANKS AND GREETINGS FROM

Mrs.J.van STEENDEREN
6 MURRAYSTREET
6740 SWELLENDAM                                                        What a lovely letter…..Ed.
