• Notes

  Wrote book about Edgemont, South Dakota "Glimpses into Edgemont's Past", 1961. Came to Edgemont in 1899. September 1970 letter to M. Beckwith Dear Cousin, On April 5th Gilbert suffered a severe paralytic stroke affecting his entire right side. Could neither walk nor talk, with some paralysis in throat. He was in the Veterans Hospital in Hot Springs, S. D. (30 miles from Edgemont) until last week. Doctor sent him home for a month and we are getting along fine. A wheel chair and Canadian Walking cane were sent with him. His speech is coming back SLOWLY so we are able to communicate. He can walk a little using the cane, a steel brace on his right ankle and with me holding on to his belt in the back. He is very happy to be at home and I think the doctor will release him to me each successive month the winter. We have had a dreadfully hot summer, or so my friends tell me. Over 100 many successive days but I was so concerned over Gib and busy making daily trips to the hospital that I did not notice the heat. Thank you for reminding us of the anniversary and of Fred's birthday. We hope that Fred and Blanche remain in fair health and will enjoy some happy hours together. Our love to all, Gilbert and Katherine Taylor
