WANT TO CONFER BY STATES
Russian People Disinter Dead
Bodies and Eat Them for Food

This will serve to give you a
slight idea of the conditions in
which we find ourselves. In some
districts, the people have become
so distracted for the want Of food
that they have disinterred dead
bodies and eaten them. Others
again have eaten little children.
after due deliberation we have
all decided to come to you in
America. We have heard that
anyone who has friends in Amer
lea may have free passage there
May /. The only condition i'm
posed is that the friends or rela-
tives of such people must declare
themselves willing to receive such
emigrants. If you wish to have
us come to you, you must give
your consent at this time.
Now, my dear son, 1 will close
the letter. We all hope that you
will not forget us. Write as soon
as it is possible for you to do so.
The Lord keep you all until that
hour when we shall be happily re-
united"
