Evans tells Daniel that "No examination of any extent has yet been made into the state of his affairs.

Thus compelled to rely upon our own resources I feel the greater necessity of remaining at my post until we have achieved our victory. I pray you accept this acknowledgment for the flattering terms in which your invitation is conveyed."

1902101618Collection of over 30 letters many with original envelopes and stamps a few empty envelopes letters folded some staining soiling and aging a few tears at folds; generally very legible. This collection of letters belonged to Bernard Jordan who lived in Maine. A few different addresses in Maine but the 1940 Census shows him living in Raymond Cumberland Maine which is the address on many of the letters. While the archive spans many years most of the letters are from the 1920s or earlier. Oddly last item in the group is a phone bill from 1962. Most of the content is family related and a letter from June 6 1914 wishes him happy eighteenth birthday. The lot includes one postcard.

1945247<p>Cover has some minor stains and wear especially along the spine edges which is pretty typical for something from 1945. Inside though the pages are clean bright and free of marks or highlights. So overall I'd say it's in good condition especially considering its age with just some typical wear on the outside.</p><p>The Boston & Maine Railroad Minuteman Service Travel Guide published on October 15 1945 was a promotional pamphlet highlighting a premier rail route through Northern New England. It provided schedule details for the Minuteman train connecting Boston and Troy New York and showcased attractions like the White Mountains.
