Two digitized letters from the Yasui Brothers business records, Mss 2949. The letters, written in a pre-World War II Japanese script, are from Tadashi Kinoshita to Masuo Yasui. In the first letter, Tadashi describes activity in Seattle surrounding Armistice Day and then discusses the status of the Spanish flu in the area. He asks Masuo for financial assistance while he waits for his departure permit to arrive so that he can return to Japan. In the second letter, he describes the impact of the Spanish flu on Seattle, his wife's recovery, and wishes Masuo's wife rest and recuperation. The letters have been translated into English and modern Japanese.
