Doris Holmes Blake - Correspondence with Arthur Lake Holmes and Lucy Wentworth Holmes, undated (Folder 1 of 4)

If you've been following along with and contributing to our Doris Holmes Blake transcription projects, you may have noted that much of the correspondence between Doris and her parents, Arthur and Lucy, was really carried on between Doris and her mother. Many letters in previous projects make reference to Arthur's ill health, which seems to have halted any missives he had been in the habit of penning to his daughter. Get some more insight into Arthur in his own words in this latest batch of Doris's papers.
