According to Merriam-Webster Amanuensis means one employed to write from dictation or to copy manuscript. So today I am going to 'copy' a letter that was among grandma Hazel's stuff. It was written to her and grandpa Will from Hazel's cousin Clara Welker Stephens.
Montpelier, Idaho.Note: copied as written, misspellings and all.
