To Charles L. Webster
8 June 1884 • Hartford, Conn. (MS, in pencil: NPV, UCCL 02992)
Sunday.
Dear Charley—

No, I want a special sleeping car—dern the drawing room Car.

Put it on the D L & W train leaving Hoboken the morning of Wednesday the 18th. We shall arrive in New York Tuesday evening. Provide a comfortable chair for Livy, Charley—she doesn’t like the sleeping-car seats.
