Notes:
1. In a note on the letter:" Aunt Fronia gave Mary and Julia a trip to
Springs in N. C. a summer resort. Aunt Addie and Aunt Ellen, Mamma's sisters
visited us often and we loved them devotedly. AWL"
2. Addie Boyd Wagner is named for her mother's sister Addie King Boyd.
3. The resort is may be at Hot Springs, NC, which I believe is in near the
Haywood/Madison County lines.
4. The spelling, capitalization and grammar are as the appear in the original.
