Typescript letter signed manager of circulation, Century Co., New York, to T.K. Skinker, St. Louis. Thank you for your reply to my letter asking why you discontinued your subscription for The Century.

Letter signed T.K. Skinker, St. Louis, to wife, Biloxi, Mississippi. You got away just in time to escape the 10 degree weather. Daniel overslept himself and did not show up until 7:15. Daniel unexpectedly owned up, but Bella’s belligerent disposition was not so easily balked of an opportunity, and she went for Daniel for having left the furnace choked with cinders and ashes. . ., 1917 Jan 14

Letter signed T.K. Skinker, St. Louis, to wife, Biloxi. It was certainly an inspiration when you bethought yourself of Biloxi. May you keep on improving until you get back to your old condition when you could walk at will and work around among your flowers. Always active in planning good for others, Bella bethought herself of a plan to send Little Sam to the Community school, kindergarten class. By this he would get a change of air & scene, bright surroundings and lots of little cherubs[?] to associate, play and fight with. I think this is too good a scheme to drop easily. The enclosed clipping shows that poor Mrs. [Virginia Coleman] Gregory has passed away at last., 1917 Jan 16

I enclose a notice of the death of Mrs. Manny. I also enclose a supplicatory letter from the Century Magazine. I did not know such a big concern would grovel so low., 1917 Jan 18
