To A. V. S. Anthony
15 March 1881 • Hartford, Conn. (MS facsimile: www.ebay.com, 18 February 2005, lot 6512101088, UCCL 12733)
My Dear Mr. Anthony—

I will return the pictures to you per express this evening or tomorrow. They are very beautiful; better could not be desired. If we can be as successful with the rest, we are all right.

Truly Yours
S L Clemens
