Wales, Alaska 16 Aug 1908









Previous letter

Lois to Roy's mother. Addressed from Wales but seems to be all written from Diomede. Mr. Black, the carpenter. "I find you have a nephew [son of Anna Eliza Walters, probably one of the two younger sons] attending college at Grinnell, Iowa. I have had two cousins [probably the children of Thomas Clarkson Kersey] graduate there and one that attended the year of 1906-07. His name was Roy Clampitt." Attended University of Nashville [later Peabody College, now Peabody College [of Education] Vanderbilt University.] The school that Roy built is pictured here.
