This is a letter that I don't understand at all. I almost hate to touch it I think it is so wonderful, but I don't understand it. It is dated December 6, 1935. It is in German. It is addressed to John B. Dick, but it is signed by John B. Dick as well. The postmark is Hillsboro, Kansas. What the heck. Grandpa is writing to himself in Reedley from Hillsboro? I don't get it. Anyway the envelope says Salem Deaconess Hospital in Hillsboro. Was Grandpa in the hospital? Who knows. Also, and this is only a guess, this would have been about the time they moved to California from Kansas. (Dustbowl time.) I just don't know, but what a beautiful letter to have.
