  The letter was apparently written in response to a letter from Benjamin, Robert's daughter's father-in-law, who had written to Robert inquiring about work or houses that might be available in Wilkes-Barre. One should remember that during 1893, the United States was in the midst of a full blown economic depression, and certainly both families must have been affected by it to one degree or another. As M. Robert B. Klinger noted in his family history, one should also remember that both men were either near or over the age of 70 at the time of the letter, and unlike many of their descendants could not rely on federal Social Security to support them and their families. Nevertheless, despite the ongoing effects of the depression and their exchange of letters, Benjamin and his family apparently remained in Allegan County, Michigan. Text of the letter is below (spelling preserved):
  
  Mr. Benjamin Klinger
