Description
In this handwritten letter, dated June 10, 1921, Clayton Webb writes from Texas to his sister, Annie "Nancy" Webb Ray in Kosciusko, Mississippi to update her on how his chicken farm setup is going. He describes his hens and their production and how much work he's put into the land. He goes on to discuss the death of a family friend and then talks complimentary about Annie's husband, Emmett and the high esteem he holds for him. An envelope addressed to Mrs. Annie Ray and postmarked Sylvester, Texas, June 11, 1921 is included.
