(1929 August, Buffalo WY
Oh, nearly everyone at Cody is so fed up on this Buffalo Bill Stuff -- they can't abide it any more. It's played up constantly and becomes painful.
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.
