The name of the recipient appears to me to be "Mrs. Sarah D. Barret". I would like to know the name of the sender (who lived in McNairy Co.). I have written to the seller to ask. Hope I receive an answer. It would be nice if whoever gets this letter, if they would offer a copy of it to the McNairy Co., Historical Society and for it to be posted on the McNairy Co., website for all to benefit from.
