This is it. The year they finally were able to marry. Last year they were making plans, this year the details are even more refined. Notice that even after August, the letters are still addressed with Marian Zurlo. Because she was the only one in her family (the Zurlo's) to have a job, she couldn't tell anyone she was married or she would be fired. What a complicated life and how amazing for us to be able to see into what they lived.

Perhaps the idea that women are the true keepers of history is true. Certainly after they married, there were many more letters from Marian that were kept.
