April 13, 1945 Dear Leonard 58 yrs ago yesterday we were married. Again it was my lucky day — your letter, one from Cornelia, F.D.R. died. The two first broke a long family sitonce silence, the last fulfilled my desire to live to see him out of the White House. Now I can die in peace. Your news was most welcome. To have the Kellers back in Wash. is good for you. To have Barbara near by us will, I hope, make it possible for us to see her now & then. With the Tulls in Rochester, we will have quite a bit of family near us. The Tull address is Roger Tull 28 Luzerne St. Rochester N.Y. in case you happen that way. He is a chemist in an Eastman laboratory.

In this letter of April 13, 1945, Laura Kephart writes her son Leonard Kephart the day after the 58th anniversary of her marriage to Horace. She mentions that F. D. R. has died and she is happy he is out of the White House. She shares details of Susie’s wedding that Cornelia shared with her. Susie is Laura’s granddaughter. She talks about how Cornell has changed under the direction of Ezra Day and how the campus is overrun with Army and Navy men. She updates him on friends and relatives including Lucy, Manton, David, and Howard.
