Collection Overview
| Size | 35 items |
| Abstract | Thirty-four letters written to Charles Vogler of Salem, N.C., and one letter from him, most written while Vogler was a student at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill starting in 1905. Letters are from his mother, aunt, and brother Herbert, and chiefly contain family news from Salem. Letters describe social events, illnesses, and the performances and practices of a band in which both Charles and Herbert Vogler played. Letters express concern about Vogler's health and the hazing of freshmen at UNC. A letter from Aunt Minnie contains a strip of four small photographs of Minnie and two other women and another contains newspaper clippings about jiu jitsu. Four letters, 1902 and 1904, are from Annie Barnard, perhaps a cousin, in Asheville, N.C., describing social activities and family news. |
