Title:
Letter from Capt. A. Keller to Michael Anagnos, March 28, 1892 (p. 1 of 2)
Description:
Sheffield [crossed out] Home, Ala., Mch 28th, 1892 Mr. M Anagnos So Boston, Mass. My Dear Sir, I am just up today from an attack of la grippe, which, with lumbago has virtually disabled me for several weeks. I have intended writing to you for some time, and a letter from Miss Hoppkins, to my wife, just received, stimulates me to perform that duty above. Two weeks ago I sent Miss Annie some money to be used in defraying her own and Helen’s expenses in coming home, but left the date of her return entirely with her, supposing, as a matter of course, that she would confer freely with you and consult your wishes, as far as possible, in fixing the date. Next to our own, we recognize no claims upon our dear child to be as strong as yours and it will...
