Helen... He is writing about a new baby coming to the household. Of course, he doesn't have any bad behaviors, yet! He can't do any of those other things because he is a baby. It's also a warning to the other boys of the good behavior expected of them when they are older. My thoughts!
Thank you Marlee! I was further confused by the letter saying, “who claims that he is a brother of yours and Sidney’s and Harry’s”! But in the bio above, it says this was written a year before his death, and he left behind his wife and 3 sons! 🤷🏻♀️ I think I need more sleep! 😩🤭
I am so confused as to the age of Rob! In one section it speaks of the mother breastfeeding him, and says he tries to put both fists in his mouth and wanting breakfast at 4am! But then it says he doesn’t use snuff, stay out late, or drink intoxicating liquors, doesn’t work on a sabbath, and doesn’t play hazardous games! Any thoughts, or information I may have missed? 🤯

It seems people were so much kinder and sweetly expressive years ago. Is it because they had to take time to write?
This letter is an absolute gem! What whimsical imagination!

I was a little confused myself. I'm not sure how the parents wouldn't know they had another child somewhere. I'm glad it's not just me.
