Letter from Alice Hoskins to Hazel F. Shipman, June 5, 1924

My dear Hazel - Have just received Iola's letter telling me about your loss - I am so sorry that I am not there to help do the little things for you that friends can do - My dear I know what you are going through and you have my very deepest sympathy - I know that mere words mean so little at a

time like this - I am so glad that you have your lovely children for I know that they will be such a comfort to you.

I will see you as soon as I get home - and if there is anything that I can do for you please let me know.

My love and deepest sympathy to the children - and with a heartful of sympathy for you - I am lovingly

Alice Hoskins
