Mira Lloyd Dock
Description
A letter from Mira Lloyd Dock to the McFarlands, discussing Dock's old age and her desire to protect nature despite this fact.
March 15, 1936
My very dear McFarlands,
If you could know the many times I wish I would see you, you might be surprised, but this time I really must inflict my 82 year old writing on the Chief of the Clan. Is this prospect as terrible as it reads? Don't they know that Flickers must have dead trees, or dead branches? We keep a regular fright of a tree for our Flickers. As I never go any where any more, not since 1932, perhaps I exaggerate the destructive effect of these projects. Hoping you are all well I am. Yours with affection.
