Letter from Michael Anagnos to Annie Sullivan, June 21, 1887
Description:
June 21st My dear Annie, I sent you last week a package containing several copies of the list of words prepared by yourself for the use of your pupil. Please accept them for little Helen with much love and my best wishes. I thank you most heartily for the magnolia buds, which you were so very kind as to send me through Mrs. Hopkins, as well as for your suggestion to seek employment for some of our meritorious young men in the South. We may avail ourselves of it in the near future. Pray present my thanks to Mrs. Keller for the mirasol seeds, and believe me, with much love and cordial greetings, Sincerely your friend, M. Anagnos. Miss Annie M. Sullivan Tuscumbia, Alabama.
