Dear Eugene-

I am overjoyed to go—will write particulars when I get home—Dont address any letters to me here—but to Thermopolis Wyoming—
With love from your Aunt Mrs I S Schultz

Dear Eugene,
Your letter—and Check arrived the morning I left Seattle—I had no time to write then—I arrived here in Thermopolis—Saturday—I am staying at a friends rooming house—I will remain here until I can get my home warmed up—I will occupy 2 room. My health is fairly well—
Helen was terribly mad when she found out I could not deed over all my property—and she told me she was through with me. She made me pay for the freight on my Baggage—and she sent it C.O.D. so I had to pay it here—
I thank you for the check, it will help me until I can get the old age pension—The snow is about a foot here—and I will be delayed getting around to see about the pension. I am in comfortable rooms—and will buy my food and prepare it in my room—The land lady will let me cook anything I wish to on her kitchen stove—so I will be all O.K. I will write again soon—again thanking you for all favors—with best wishes from your aunt.
Mrs I S Schultz—
Write when convenient—

Isaac transferred the deed to his homestead to his wife Amanda shortly before he passed away in 1931. [Deed from the collection of Lee Shultz]
On June 15, 1932, Amanda Schultz (Isaac's widow), transferred the deed to her properties to her daughter Helen, including a half-divided interest in a tract of 20 acres, presumably where Amanda Schultz's house was located. [Deed from the collection of Lee Shultz]
