AbstractLetters written by Bernthal, pastor of St. Paulus Evangelical Lutheran Church in San Francisco, California, to his older brother in Michigan. Some letters were typewritten in German, others were handwritten in the old German script; the first letter includes a first-hand account of the San Francisco earthquake of April 18, 1906. A sample of the German script is included to accompany one of the letters.
