Morrell Steed Robinson to friends, January 10, 1959
A letter from Morrel to the family's friends sharing news of the end of Batista's government and the return to their regular work, sharing that they have begun their outreach work with rural communities once again as the country opens back up, condemning the United State's role in Batista's rise to power and consequent tyranical rule over Cuba that resulted in the civil struggle, expressing the expectation that some in Cuba are likely to distrust missionaries from the United States and that new restrictions are likely to be put in place, and sharing his hope that the deep-seated longing for freedom and liberty that is present in both Americans and Cubans will help to bridge whatever differences rise between them.
