Thank you much, Rich and Hugh.
And thanks, Hugh, for describing the palps of the Gelechiids.  That's the kind 
of info we newbies need.

  I agree with Richard, except that I feel pretty comfortable calling it 
Macrochilo hypocritalis.

    I always have trouble with whitish moth.  This one is also worn.  I have no 
clue what it is.  Came to light 7/23.

    Any help is very much appreciated.
