Transcript
Connecticut June 8/69
Rev. and dear sir,
I have just got home from our convention and rec’d a letter from Dr. Nelson of Urbana saying he had received the paper which you sent and which I forwarded and he and the friend he represented are perfectly satisfied with what you and your son-in-law did and repeat their thanks. It was very nicely done.
Yours affectionately,
Charles P. McIlvaine
Rev. E. Allen. [?]
