At long last documentation

This inexplicably typed on 12x15 rice paper:

"2812 1/2 Nueces Apt 4
Austin 13 inst Feb 63

"...Cat named Hershberger is going to move in here to escape the high 
rent one lot away. He is a graduate chemist, currently employed by the 
Air Force doing chemical research at the Defense Research Lab here at 
the University while he seeks his Master's...among other things [he] 
has rebuilt an old taperecorder into something that Rube Goldberg might 
have invented, but it records like a $600 Ampex pro job despite its 
homemade features (or, more accurately, because of them).

"He has added a Hollywood-style couch that makes into a double bed, 
replacing the one that the cats burned up accidentally just before I 
came here.

"This place is easily big enough for three, and that will make the rent 
only $13.3333/mo. apiece. [bills paid]

"Today he brought over a 1958 model Westinghouse hardly used atall 
refrigerator which he got from a couple he knows here in Austin, who 
moved into a new house which came equipped already with a newer model 
so they just stored this one in the garage. They were afraid the kids 
would eventually get into it so they told Hersh if he wanted it, he was 
welcome to borrow it for as long as he could use it. We have about a 
1948 model Frigidare big with real porcelain and all and a small 
freezer even, but our needs require more than that rudimentary space so 
we have moved that jewel into the front room and are using it for 
storing an auxillary supply of perishables. [Mainly Bismarck beer, as I 
recall, at $2.50/case, from Sage]

"Snowed like hell here Monday morning big gobs of snow. I was up at six 
to go to my eight o'clock and saw it go from rain to sleet to snow 
before 6:30. Snowed 2 1/2 inches.

"Gotta go drain my radiator. More later on." [Can't afford anti-freeze]

The refrigerators among other things, got us evicted later on.
