Dear Father,
I was so glad to receive a letter from Mother last week! I am well, but sadly some of my friends here aren’t so lucky. There have been so many frightening accidents and lives lost. Only a few days ago, a young man suffered great injuries from working on a broken machine. The workers had let the management know that the machine was faulty. But they paid no attention to the workers’ complaints. Yesterday, I received my wages. I get a dollar a week now in addition to board. I will send the money home so that you can rest for a bit from working on the farm. I hope to hear from you soon.
Love,
Jane
