More about Martin...and Relatives in Utah

Lincoln, Neb.

Nov 6, 1956

Dear Marie -

I was glad to receive an answer from the Company. Isn't is wonderful that Martin has been employed now over 3 years by the Company? I am proud of him. Now we must respect him and try to show him how we would like to see him.

Now please sit down and write to him how you would like to have him come out for a visit. But first to come to Omaha and his father said he would be glad to see him. Then I hope your father and Martin will come to Lincoln. That is if Martin does come I mean.

Please write at once to the company and explain how you would like to Martin to come for a visit out there. But to come for me first so we can come out to Arizona together. The company address is -

Tak Shipping Corporation

30 Broad Street

New York 4, New York

Now Martin was in New York last year in December and I hope he will be this year. Please ask the company if Martin will be in New York this month.

Now in case Martin does not answer your letter write and ask the company to talk to Martin for you. Perhaps you had better hear from the company and then explain matters to Bob. (note from Anna: I think she meant Frank)

About my relatives out in Utah I received a letter from them when they first arrived from Sweden. I was in the hospital here in Lincoln. I haven't seen them so I would be delighted to meet them. They have sent me pictures of them-selves and postal cards. I am enclosing a card they sent me. This is what my cousin's daughter wrote to me - and I quote -

"We have been thinking why don't you go to your daughter in Arizona now first or later on come here." Un-quote.

So Marie please cooperate and help me. Thanking you very. very much in advance. It will be a most Merry Christmas for me when you write in your letter that I may come out to Arizona Marie.

Please write soon and read over my letter as you write.

With best wishes,

I remain,

Your Mother

Dear Marie -

I thought I would copy the letter which I received so that you may see what they wrote in answer to my letter.

I wrote to Martin Nov. 6th 1956 to the address which this company sent. So far I have not heard from Martin. That is the reason I wrote to the company.
