Letter is datelined North Chichester, New Hampshire and written by Joel Chandler to his sister Matilda. Mailed from Pittsfield because Joel was working in North Chichester but is now working in Pittsfield. He mentions he is going to school two months of the year and working 10 months. While the letter is easy to read, his spelling indicates a lack of education…not uncommon in those days.
