Italy -- Emigration and immigration -- History, Italian letters, Italians -- United States -- History -- 20th century

Giuseppe writes his mother in law to thank her for the pasta ("tagliatelle) and flour (farina) and thanks on behalf of Angiolino for the 3000 lire. He assures her that she is always on their minds and he is tormented knowing that although she is iin Italy she is far from them ("non facciamo altro che parlare di voi tutte le ore di tutti i giorni.. come mi tormenta il cervello sapervi in Italia e non avervi con noi"). When she leaves he will come to hug her.
