Scope and Contents

Written from Morris, Conn.; Maywood, Ill.; Boston and Auburn, Maine; and New Vineyard, Cornish, Bangor, Portland, and Farmington, Maine to Annie in Cornish and Bangor, Maine. 27 January-24 November 1882 Both John and Nellie write to Annie about the family’s health; rheumatic fever is rampant. Fannie has been having horrible nose bleeds and the doctor barely kept her from bleeding to death. John writes to Annie and informs her that she will be getting a new sister soon, implying that he is to marry. Cousin Stella writes to Nellie and Annie and sends her best wishes to them and their new mother (apparently their father remarried though this is not discussed at length by any of the letters) and is excited about the news that John is marrying as well. Other friends write to Annie that Katie is getting married and Georgie is teaching at Auburn.
