            <text>&lt;p&gt;Dear sister Lottie&lt;br /&gt; a little note to remind you that&lt;br /&gt; I have not forgotten your birthday&lt;br /&gt; I am so glad to see you looking&lt;br /&gt; well and we wish you many happy&lt;br /&gt; birthdays to follow. We were glad&lt;br /&gt; to have had the little visit with&lt;br /&gt; you and your family. So glad to&lt;br /&gt; have seen Harry again and also&lt;br /&gt; to meet his wife. She seemed very&lt;br /&gt; pleasant and interesting. Gill(?) and &lt;br /&gt; Verma(?) are such worth while young&lt;br /&gt; people. We hope that the elements&lt;br /&gt; will not dry them out this coming&lt;br /&gt; year but give them Nebraska in &lt;br /&gt; general an abundant crop.&lt;br /&gt; we too feel very much warmed over&lt;br /&gt; -------------------------&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;the condition of Josephine's little girl&lt;br /&gt; and hope that the will be marked im-&lt;br /&gt; provement when we hear again.&lt;br /&gt; Lottie I talked with our (?)est&amp;nbsp; Supervisor&lt;br /&gt; in our schools about having copies&lt;br /&gt; of mothers picture made &amp;ndash; She knows the&lt;br /&gt; picture well. Thinks there is noone&lt;br /&gt; here now who could do it. There was&lt;br /&gt; but she has gone. She told megapho-&lt;br /&gt; tographes who might be able to do it&lt;br /&gt; I will see him soon &amp;ndash; and let you know&lt;br /&gt; what he has today. A few years ago&lt;br /&gt; before the old home burned Ray Reas(?)&lt;br /&gt; took a Kodac picture of it I asked him&lt;br /&gt; when we were there in June to get it&lt;br /&gt; for me. He kept neglecting it and only&lt;br /&gt; got it two or three days before it (?)&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;which I think was in September. I thought&lt;br /&gt; it was Pioneer History, Built before&lt;br /&gt; the Burlington R R came into Nebr.&lt;br /&gt; The Stage coach stopped there to lease and&lt;br /&gt; ----------------&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;take mail on their route. Freighters&lt;br /&gt; from Nebr City and Plattsmouth on&lt;br /&gt; the trail to Denver passed by long&lt;br /&gt; (?) (?) Mr Knowles held&lt;br /&gt; services there every other week on Sun&lt;br /&gt; afternoon and as I have said to our&lt;br /&gt; children &amp;ndash; it was "Community&lt;br /&gt; Centre" without being named such&lt;br /&gt; Rays Kodac was very small but you&lt;br /&gt; can have the picture made larger&lt;br /&gt; if you wish. Lulu(?) had one made for&lt;br /&gt; one 7x5 inches. It is a very good picture&lt;br /&gt; if you would like to have a picture of&lt;br /&gt; the old house I will send you the &lt;br /&gt; film. I am enclosing the one Ray had&lt;br /&gt; finished. Theo thinks mine is 8x5 inches&lt;br /&gt; I went into the house but not upstairs&lt;br /&gt; Some changes which were an improve&lt;br /&gt; ment. You were in California then&lt;br /&gt; ------------------&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;your visits have been so short that&lt;br /&gt; we did not have time to think of&lt;br /&gt; nor talk of our doingo(?) . You must&lt;br /&gt; come when you can stay long&lt;br /&gt; enough that we will get caught up&lt;br /&gt; on our visiting. I am enclosing&lt;br /&gt; the picture of the old home that Ray&lt;br /&gt; had finished. The larger one that Lulu(?)&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Had made for me shows up better.&lt;br /&gt; We hope that you have a comfortable&lt;br /&gt; winter and keep well.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;With love to you and yours-&lt;br /&gt; Theodore and Anna&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Should I address letters to Verna(?) to&lt;br /&gt; Aurora or Hampton?&lt;/p&gt;</text>

              <text>&lt;p&gt;This is a letter to Charlotte Littlefield from her sister Anna and her husband Theodore. Anna probably wrote this letter in the late 1930s or early 1940s, since this is the time the interest in family history rekindles.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Charlotte (Lotta) Littlefield (nee Roberts) was Joseph Littlefield's second wife, whom he married in 1887 after his first wife Hellen died in 1881. Robertses came to Nebraska from Illinois in 1864 to homestead in Cass County.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;The letter comes from the collection of Terri and Dave Mabon. Dave Mabon is Charlotte Littlefield's great-grandson.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
