  <mods:abstract>Tuscumbia, Alabama August 23, 1887  Mr. Anagnos, My dear Friend,  The list of words you were so kind to send me, have been a great help to me, and have afforded Helen much benefit and pleasure. Please do not think because you have not heard from me before, your kindness was unappreciated. If you could have seen Helen's joy, as her fingers discovered each familiar name or object, you would have been made very happy...</mods:abstract>
