This listing is for the incredible early set of personal letters, handwritten, to Mary Wissler of Thurmont, MD who was a former teacher. She was married to Wilbert Garrison who later was a math professor. I think there are about 18 of them, unless we separated one, but I really think it's 18.
Nice personal information, even better than a diary as far as details. Original handwritten family papers.
Includes
1. Malone NY letter from Delle Alalrd Merriman who lost some german books
2. 1896 letter to Wilbert from Mary responding to stresses Wilbert previously wrote. 6pg
3.1896 letter to Mary from old friend Virginia Myers, who only weighed 88 pounds and had poor health, and appears to give updates of lots of people they knew in common.
4. 1895 letter to Wilbert from Mary, love letter to husband who is apart, health issues with concern with finances, and more.
5. Letter toWilbert from Mary saying family things she has become cold, stern and heartless...
