MS-700: Katharine Wright Haskell Papers

Description

This letter is undated and unattached to any other letter, but is believed to have been written on October 26, 1926. In this letter, Katharine Wright writes to Henry Haskell opening with a declaration against the weather in Dayton. She touches on some legal trouble the Kansas City Star is having, a dinner she and Orville attended in honor of General Gillmore's promotion to head of Wright Field that had too much drinking for her taste, her continued depression in the wake of Orville's rejection of their marriage, and other aspects of her daily life.
