Letter signed T.K. Skinker to wife. Describes walk in the country. I took the Olive street car out to DeBaliviere Ave. and there took the Midland to the Ashby road. It is a country of orchards and small fruits as well as grain. The farm houses are frequent, all well painted, and look comfortable. It is a strange collection of German names, Henry Thilker, Hermann Luedloff, August Protschke, Mrs. Mina Fey &c. Turning eastward out of the Link road, I walked along the Clayton road, past the Log-Cabin Club grounds. . . . The Marshes arrived about six o’clock., 1902 Aug 17

Letter signed T.K. Skinker to wife. This afternoon I helped to lay away in Bellefontaine our good friend Leavitt. In spite of the public sentiment that he committed suicide, the funeral was well attended. There was an unusual preponderance of men, an evidence I suppose that the women are out of town. The plan of sending Evelyn Winchester to Leland Stanford has been abandoned. She will take a full college course at W.U. I enclose a song of the Skinker road. Jane Fordyce has gone to San Francisco to meet her spouse. Called on the Tennents. Positively, there has not been a warm night since you left. This is a great opportunity for you to speak up for St. Louis, and I expect you to do it., 1902 Aug 22

Letter signed T.K. Skinker to wife. Hereafter, if I ever think of sending you all away from home again, I will wait til I find out what kind of summer it is going to be.
