I
have attached a picture that was taken in the summer of 1955 of my fiance Durway
Jaynes and myself. We were leaving his place of employment at Butler's Shoe
Store on Austin Ave.
I am trying to recall the name of the cafe
that was located across the street and on the corner in the same block. That was
where we shared our first cup of coffee and shared many more for 30 years until
his untimely death in 1986. Can you help me? - With many thanks, Ginger Jaynes

My husband, a long-time Austinite thinks
the café in question may be the Austin hotel Coffee Shop on the NE corner of 7th
and Congress. Butler’s Shoes was on Congress Ave not Austin Ave. - Jeanell
