This question is part of a letter, written as a portion of a school exercise. It was written 99 years ago from one of my husband's uncles (Paavo) to his cousin Fredrik, a few years his senior. The older cousin had left for America, leaving his younger family members to envy the adventure but worry about his wellbeing.
