Letter to Edwin Wallace Stoughton. In part: “I have been in the burnt district since I left your city with the exception of one week in Canandaigua. Shall close these out door labors before I leave…Have erected, and in the process of erection 4 buildings, pulled down 2 and removed 2, which involved in the widening of our street.” Intersecting folds, a slight brush to the main text, and mild mirroring to ink, otherwise fine condition.
