Letter signed T.K. Skinker to wife. I paid my first visit to both the Manufactures and to the Mines & Metallurgy Buildings. I came to the cloth exhibit of the Charlottesville Woolen Mills.

On the Denny road I passed Ben Thomas’ new place, the one he established after Boland kicked him out. Conversation with J. Preiss. I spent an evening last week with Maggie Potter., 1904 Aug 28

Letter signed T.K. Skinker to wife. I think we might reduce the wedding party to three and thus cut down the expenses. If it is done this way, I will have just that much more to use in helping Charlie at going to housekeeping; so I have no doubt he and Bessie will approve. I don’t blame Kat for liking Chicago. But that is no reason why she should look down on St. Louis., 1904 Sept 2

Letter signed T.K. Skinker, Charlottesville, Virginia, to wife. I went to call on Mrs. Thornton and sat with her until her staying guests, U.S. Senator & Mrs. Martin, arrived. Visited Miss Mary Miner, the Meades, Pinnie, Micajah Woods, Jim & Lily Morgan. Pinnie said that Tom Morris is so addicted to the use of morphine that a stranger cannot venture to deal with him. She is going to give up Mrs. Rives’ house on the 1st of June. The program this afternoon was a pretty cold deal for the alumni., 1905 Apr 13

Letter signed T.K. Skinker, St. Louis, to wife, Arcadia Valley Sanitarium, Ironton, Mo. I am very sorry to hear of your malarial attack. Eck left this morning on his westward journey.

Mr. & Mrs. Sam Gordon were expected to arrive. Rosalie is with Mrs. Wheat & Frederick is with a camp of boys in W. Virginia., 1905 July 28
