Undated Letter from Frederick G. Payne, Clarinetist with Maine Symphony Orchestra to Miss Vinal, a Singer from Vinalhaven, Maine


Undated letter where Frederick George Payne, a clarinetist with the Maine Symphony Orchestra compliments a Miss Vinal on her singing at an event in Vinalhaven, Maine.

The reverse shows the identification of the letter writer in a contemporary hand.  Mr. Payne was presumably Frederick George Payne (1856-1919) or, possibly, his son Maine governor Frederick George Payne (1904-1978).


If you have a theory as to the identity of Miss Vinal, presumably from Vinalhaven, Maine, please leave a comment for the benefit of other researchers.
