Letter from Colston to Minor, 20 March 1891

Virginia: State Library

Richmond, Mar. 20th 1891

My Dear Sir,

At the recommendation of Judge [Flannery?] I inclose [you?] a copy of a letter I find in the corres pondence of Gov. [Pinpoint?] supposing it may be gratifying to you to Know that you had a friend in whose esteem you stood so high.

I [have?] to wade through an immense amt. of corres pondence of the Gov. to find any thing worthy of being recorded in the [Callendar?].

We are all well except [Janny's?] little boy [Conway?] who is confined to bed with bad cold. Have not seen Raleigh Minor for tow weeks but suppose he is [well?].

Love to all

Yrs truly Raleigh Colston

Prof John B Minor
