Deaf Mute Association Letter from 1882 Des Moines
A letter from Des Moines dated October 22 1882 describes the formation of The Hawkeye State Association of Deaf Mates by about sixty deaf mutes from various town sections. The group aims to hold conventions for two to four days every two to four years, with social events, speeches, sign language exchanges, and spiritual welfare oversight. The note highlights the 1,000 deaf mutes in Iowa and the need for mutual support and information sharing through sign language.
