by Pasini, Giovanni
Eight letters, 13 pages, letters are written in Italian, in both ink and pencil, some folding, staining, and dust soiling, else in good readable condition. There are no retained mailing envelopes, so determining where Pasini's family lived in Italy will require further research.
Pasini lived in various obscure towns in the far west, many were former mining communities, some are currently ghost towns, or are essentially so. In 1892 Pasini wrote his brother from Markleeville, Alpine County, California. He wrote his nephews circa 190 from Glendale, Montana, currently a ghost town. In 1910 he wrote to his nephews and sister from two locations in Idaho, Black Bear, currently a ghost town, and Wallace, Shoshone County, Idaho. The years 1915-1919 found Pasini, in Nevada, in Luning, Mineral County, a virtual ghost town today, and Yerington, located in Lyon County.
Pasini's letters are short and in which he often sends money home. (Inventory #: 31138)
