(1976 January 9)
I pray that soon you can trade that tiny one-man car [a Capri] in for a nice roomy station wagon, and then everyone will be comfortable, with nothing needed to be left behind, or held on laps to Kansas!
Polly Kay (1904-1997) vividly and with humor describes her life in Richland Center, Wisconsin, in excerpts from letters to her son Skip written after 1949, including her 5 last years in an old folks' home.
