Description
In this handwritten letter, dated December 20, 1859, Jack (Anderson Jackson) Boyd writes to his sister, Matilda Ann "Lit" Boyd Webb to describe how much he enjoys the boarders being gone for the holidays and what his plans are. He goes on to speculate on who he thinks will return and who won't and how he hopes to have a room to himself as well as his thoughts on the female college.
