John called- Bertha talked to him- It was about the “Gateway to September” and “Northwoods Mood”- Several people interested in buying the former- One of them F- who said he “thought it had been reserved for him”- But John told him it was sold- and then told him he should not “buy” more pictures until he had paid up for the ones already bought.
