797 Greene Avenue Brooklyn 26 Dec 1881 My Dear Young Friend: - It is a very little thing that you ask of me - a line or two with my name at the bottom - and I should be worse than old Scrooge to refuse. I know of nothing better to write than that I wish you all the happiness that belongs of right to boyhood; and especially I send you hearty Christmas Greetings. Very Sincerely Yours Geo. Cary Eggleston [W G Gralty ?]
