One letter addressed to Bets, Davis, Jack and Mike from Nellie Joe Wetmore dated July 21, 1963. Notes that she is writing from Galilee. She writes that she is lonely and anxious to come home in a month from the date. Nellie describes having church services in Mary, Mother of Jesus', home. The 110 degree weather kept them indoors in the afternoon. She comments how much the city has modernized since 1949. The back of the letter continues dated 22 July. She writes in the margins that she is enjoyin Greece because she is less afraid, since fighting broke out between "arabs and jews" three days after leaving "Damacus." In the body of the letter, she writes that the king of Nigeria was staying at the same hotel in Galilee causing delays to the airport. Once arriving in Athens, Nellie got her haircut. There was no mail waiting in Athens.
