Misc. Notes
William Merritt Clarke - Feb/March 1940
Excerpts from letters to daughter Jean Clarke who was away at college:
"Our business is very dull, we are not doing anything much, and I worry too much I guess, trying to figure some way to carry on a little longer."
"Mary, the young cow we raised, came fresh four weeks ago Saturday, and her baby was the blackest calf you ever saw, I sold it yesterday. We have been without milk for several weeks but have plenty now, and the old cow will be fresh in a few days. One will be for sale."
"We sold the young cow and calf and have only the old cow and calf now, might be better that we keep the old cow she is such a good one."
