Gravity Independent Pioneer Letter From Gravity Texas
A long letter describes Gravity Texas with notes on weather, sand winds, and hopeful growth. It praises the area’s future, mentions a 12 inch snow and light flurries, and notes a small school house gifted by the St. Louis Land Company serving as church. Sunday School and monthly M E preaching are listed, along with pure water, cattle prosperity, and community effort.
