A small archive consisting of six items including five handwritten letters -- four sent to Mary Bolger and one sent to Lillian Munger (with the envelope addressed to Sarah Orne Jewett). Descriptions are as follows: Letter No. 1: 1 page, 5 x 4 inches, 148 Charles Street, written to Lillian [Munger], no date, but the handwritten envelope addressed to "Miss Sarah Orne Jewett, care of Mrs. James T. Fields, Charles St." is postmarked December 4, 1889, in large part: "I was greatly interested in the story and real success of the work for woman and children. It is a very uncommon result brought about by thoughtful and careful personal desire. I am very glad for you all. It must be a great comfort to think of it when you and Miss Parkman lie down to rest." Letter No. 2: 1 page, 4.5 x 3 inches, Boston, January 19, 1893. Written on the back of a one-cent postal card to Mary Bolger, in part: ".in order to get the white silk for you I discovered that one dress (the handsome one of white crepe) will be all I shall require this season. I will send.or your inspection whenever you wish it." Letter No. 3: 1 page, 5.5 x 3.5 inches, Boston, April 23, 1895. Written on the back of a one-cent postal card to Mary Bolger, in part: ".Will you kindly let me have my cape and dress shirt . and can you surely come on the 29th. I go away that week and it is my last chance." Letter No. 4: 3 pages (front and back) each measuring 4.5 x 3.5 inches, no place, May 3, 1893, small tear along the center fold, written to Mary Bolger, in part: ".I am delighted with my silk dress. You have made it better than new. I write to say that on Monday we are busy and unable to attend to our clothes." Letter No. 5: 1 page, 6.75 x 4.25 inches, no place, no date, circa 1893, written to Mary Bolger, in part: "Will you please give my niece the two dollars added to the amount of your bill to buy a Christmas present for herself and will you thank her for the knives? I like my dresses very much indeed." As most historians and researchers agree, Annie Adams Fields was a giving person who devoted much of her life to charitable causes.
