Copy of letter from Mrs. John Wager to Vincenzina Vanzetti, January 26, 1963
Title (alt.):
Lefevre Brini Wager Letters
Vincenzina Vanzetti Letters
Description:
Vincenzina Vanzetti, Bartolomeo's sister, did whatever she could for her brother while residing in Italy. Lefevre Brini (Mrs. John Wager) was a key witness for Vanzetti. She claimed that he delivered fish to her home around 10 o'clock in the morning on April 15, 1920. In this brief letter from Brini to Vincenzina, she writes that Tom O'Connor will be sending her an article from the Nation. This letter and others found in the collection offer scholars an insight into the efforts taken by prominent figures and everyday citizens for justice for Sacco and Vanzetti.
