I spent some time this afternoon transcribing and scanning a few more letters. Things have gotten a little testy between Esther and Richard. I really wish there were rough drafts of her replies included in these letters, because I’d love to know what she wrote to him. The letters from Richard stopped soon after, and it would be nice to know why. It’s getting toward the end of the school year for both of them, so I expect that whatever came between them was resolved over the summer break, and that we will never know what happened.
