Title: Letter, August 28, 1871, C[aroline] E. Brevard, Lincolnton, North Carolina, to granddaughter Carrie Brevard, 4 pp., regarding various family and social matters: "Our school opened today with 34 scholars. I think we shall have near 50 tomorrow, with 13 boarders . . . most of the girls being about your age, or a few months older. . . I thought of dear Papa very often during his birthday. I could do nothing but commit him to the care and keeping of his Heavenly Father . . . One of my greatest troubles is the separation from him and all of you. . . I shall be glad to know that you have moved into town. Your dear father's life is a very hard one, and his absence a great privation to all of you; besides, it is almost impossible for you all to go to church with any regularity. . ."
