2 July 1881 • Branford, Conn. (MS: CtY-BR, UCCL 01980)
Branford, Conn., July 2.
Dear Sirs:

Hold on—hold on! I did not dream there was so much of Brer Talmage. If you have bought the rest of him, send it along; but if you haven’t, don’t.

Can you send me proofs of the pictures that are thus far completed for my book? Osgood promised, but Osgood forgot.

Ys Truly
