content: This series contains the correspondence of Dorothea Dreier. Most of the letters are from family and close friends, who addressed her using affectionate nicknames, including "Dodo," "DAD," and "Dadakins." While the letters in this series span from 1881-1925, the majority of them date from 1913-1916, the period during which Drier was at Saranac Lake receiving treatments for her tuberculosis. Business and third-party correspondence, visiting cards, Christmas cards, telegrams, and postcards are also found in this series.
