To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When GeorgeD was dying, his sister ElizabethD tended to him for three months. His mother wrote to their sister Sophia: "You know, she [ElizabethD] could talk with him and they could get along with her better than with me. . . ." It appears that Sophia was fluent in sign language as well. When her sister AdeliaD was sick, her mother wrote to Sophia: "I wish you was here now; perhaps you could be of some help for to talk with Adelia and inform the doctor more plainer her complaints than she can...... George CampbellDs words at the end of his letter remind us of how close many separated Maine Deaf families were thanks to river transport. GeorgeD lived in Richmond, the nearest Kennebec landing to Bowdoin. "A few days ago [GeorgeD wrote] there were a 102 sleighs on the ice, called horse trot, from here to Bath in the afternoon." That would be a fast thirteen-mile trip up the frozen Kennebec River, the Maine superhighway of that era.Reviewing George CampbellD s entire letter, we find his writing as proficient as that of his hearing mother which, if representative, reflects very well on Deaf education in that era.The full set of twenty-five letters leaves the reader impressed by how often the Deaf Campbells faced the same issues as hearing families did-health, work, marriage and childbirth, and religion.
