A letter from Louise Tyler

Letter from Louisa Marie Bigelow Tyler to Emily Sibley Watson, October 20, 1890<br />

In this letter from Louise Bigelow Tyler, we learn more about the Tyler's travels after Emily left them in Colorado Springs.  They visited the Grand Canyon, spent time with Louise's sister Emma in Denver, and stopped in Chicago before Louise stopped to visit with her family in Baldwinsville, NY.  

She enthuses over receiving her Kodak prints, and thanks "my Lady Bountiful" for lending her a Kodak camera.

Louise's tone throughout is upbeat, even when describing her husband's health: "The dear old fellow has been so well until Saturday night, when one of the old attacks came on."
