In this letter of January 2, 1935, George Kephart (1894-1961) writes to his mother, Laura Kephart from Winnebego, Nebraska while working as a Forest Engineer for the Bureau of Indian Affairs. He describes long days of driving as his office covers Minnesota, Wisconsin, Saulte Ste Marie in Michigan, North and South Dakota, Nebraska, and Iowa. He explains that $100,000 a month is being spent of conservation work and that his boss, Mr. Heritage is leaving him in charge for six weeks. George Kephart’s home base is Minneapolis where his wife and two children are living happily. He asks for the letter to be sent along to Leonard and Cornelia so a short note from Barbara Kephart Bird (1897-1985) to Leonard is included.
