(1966 Spring)
Starting last week, he [LL] worked like mad every day preparing for jury case this week. He was for Broce who operates a Xmas Tree farm at Lone Rock vs. Electric Co. who by negligence burned down some acres of trees by dropping hot wires, as far as I can make out. By the time LL has been with it all day, he wants a change of subject when he gets home.
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.
