Correspondence: UND Law Alumni, 1939-1941
Scope and Contents
About two-thirds of this series is in Norwegian and is between Moses and his relatives in Norway. The remaining correspondence centers upon his life in St. Paul from 1905-1911, as well as his university days from 1912-1915. The bulk of the university correspondence centers around three University coeds, Jessie Grassick, Alice Hunter, and Edna Rasmussen. From 1916- 1929 the correspondence gradually shifts to letters dealing with Moses' law practice, although there are many letters from his family in Norway and other people whose friendship he developed while at the University. Among the correspondents are B.J. Loss, a personal friend of Moses', who was in the tree nursery business. These letters discuss the common political issues of the day. There is also the correspondence of Ferdinand Froeschle and Percy Hansen, two friends who were in the Armed Forces. The series dates from 1900 through 1944.
