(1968 February 21)
Yesterday I bought a new winter coat - blue and black - with fur trim so I can wear a fur hat with it ... if I want to. Half price and buttons up well at the neck. The one I wear to Church is too dressy for dashing downtown on errands.
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.
