Letters of Kate Strong

These files were sent to me by Jack Scott.  He felt like it was a shame to hide them from the world.  Kate Strong was a prolific letter writer back to the newspaper (whose name changed from time to time) in Leon, IA.  I guess she stayed in touch with her old friends that way.  Her letters are interesting and convey a sense of the times.  They start back in 1901 and I have transcriptions up to 1930.  Jack Scott
