“Woodrow
and one of his brother-in-laws came out Sun. eve. He said Maryjane has decided to come back so
they are coming after the children next Sunday.
It is lots of work taking care of them because they get into everything
they come to.”
--Letter from my grandmother, Bloomington,
Kans., to my father, Salina, Kans., July 15, 1942. Woodrow was my grandmother’s
brother. His young children, Philip, age
4, and Carol, 2½ , had been staying with my grandparents while Woodrow and his
wife, Maryjane, were separated.
