Letter from Sidney Jennings Legendre, January 6, 1945
Date:
1945
Creator (Personal):
Legendre, Sidney Jennings, 1903-1948
Description:
Letter from Sidney Legendre to his wife, Gertrude Legendre, recounting the news he had heard of his sister and brother-in-law, Jane Sanford Pansa and Mario Pansa, and relaying the news he had heard of the children and their Christmas at Medway Plantation. Sidney continues in his letter to recount a story about Morris waking in a panic thinking they were all being gassed, lamenting about a gift of a record arriving smashed, and telling of some of their adventures attempting to cook. This letter was written to Gertrude when she was a prisoner of war in Europe and was likely to have been received in the package that was given to her upon her escape and return to the continental United States.
