Letter from Annie Sullivan to Michael Anagnos, March 2, 1890 (pp. 5 & 6 of 6)
Description:
... been an unusually trying winter and you were fortunate to escape it. But inspite of our abominable climate Helen has kept perfectly well. I regret very much that I cannot send your young friend one of Helen's photographs. The fact is, I have not a single picture of her in my possession, but I will write to Tuscumbia, and find out if it is possible to get any at Sheffield, if I succeed your friend shall have one. Helen sends love, and wants me to tell you that there are six little sparrows outside of the parlor window, eating the bread crumbs she has put there for them. Mrs. Howe preaches in Unity Church this morning, and Mrs. Hopkins has gone to hear her, otherwise she would probably have a message to send you. I am, With the best of wishes, Sincerely yours, Annie M. Sullivan
