Letter from Yuki Tamura to Andy Mayeshiba, July 6, 1943

While at Heart Mountain, Andy was in an accident and taken to the Heart Mountain Hospital. After he was released from the hospital, he sent flowers to the girls in hospital ward seven. Yuki Tamura wrote this letter in thanks. Flowers were a rarity in Heart Mountain, and it's unclear where the flowers came from - perhaps from a garden planted by the internees?
