ONE LAST LETTER
June 5, 1936 Grandmother Heter's last letter to Eleanor, written upon learning of
her graduation from Mount Holyoke College. It appears that she was unable to provide
a ring she had promised, so she sent her a check, but urged that she "must not say
a word about it so the rest of the (grandchildren) will find It out because I never
can doe that much for all 20 of them."
June 5, 1936 Grandmother Heter writes that "we are haveing to much Rain for the wheat
now & the weather stays so cool. Not a bit like Kansas weather."
June 5, 1936 Grandmother Heter wishes for one last trip back east, but she was not
well enough to travel such a long distance in her car. She died on November 28, 1936.
