From C. C. Graham   28 March 1880

Respected Sir,

Your letter to me acknowledging the reception of the little book I sent you has been beautifully framed and hangs in the fire proof gallery of the Kentucky State House at Frankfort where it may be read for centuries after we are gone to that unknown land.1 We have all your writings in our great Public Library at Louisville of which I am a trustee. No answer requested.

Kindly and sincerely, | C. C. Graham, M.D.

Louisville, Ky. | March 28th., 1880.
