Scope and Contents

Pem says that she and Phil weren't planning on getting married so soon, but because George Everson invested his money in Phil and wanted him to come to California, they got married so she could come with him.
Before Phil received backing from George Everson, it was very difficult to find work in Salt Lake City because of the depression. He was able to find odd work doing electrical jobs but overall struggled to make much money.
Alice reads them part of the article that suggested commemoration of Phil's invention in the form of a plaque and it was written by someone different than they had believed it to be.
Philo III talks about his interest in creating a modular, mass producible house that will allow for much cheaper single-family dwellings.
Pem talks about her sons' ability to play a variety of musical instruments.
