  <dc:title>Letter, S.T. Learnard to Dear Son [Oscar Learnard]</dc:title>
  <dc:creator>Webb, Thomas H. (Hopkins) , 1801-1866 (Creator)</dc:creator>
  <dc:description>S.T. Learnard wrote from Bakersfield, Vermont, to his son, Oscar Learnard of Kansas Territory, in this transcribed version of his letter.  S.T. mentioned his recent election to the Vermont State Legislature, in which the Republicans &quot;swept the kitchen clean&quot; of the Democratic candidates.  He also asked about land operations in Kansas Territory, but added that he was opening a store of his own in Vermont.  He discussed the possibility of obtaining buffalo and otter skins from Kansas to add to his store inventory.</dc:description>
