Miss Pennock became Mrs. Matthew C. Fox in 1914, and left her job with Western Union after nine years. A letter to Miss Pennock, dated May 8, 1914, from the Chester Office of Western Union, expresses "the Company's appreciation of your work in connection with the Media Office, as it is felt that the increased business and general good standing of the office is largely due to your efforts." According to a brief note in the Chester Times, the office was in the Bell Telephone Building (200 W. State St.) until 1914, then moved to the Delaware County American Building.
