"From
a carefree college student [10 1/2 months ago], sorry that she was already-half
through and cherishing her independence gained from a summer of travel, to a
girl trying to emerge into grown womanhood & eager to finish and marry the
finest man she can find and depend on him the rest of her life. Independence
has its point, but I like the feel of your arm around me and the thought that
we'll do things together, darling."
--Letter
from my mother, Winfield, Kans., to my father, Bloomington, Kans., Thursday, July
17, 1947.
