My dear Mrs Stanford
At this last moment I find I have not an autograph of your dear husband! Will you please send me one, and that with a new one of your own? I very much wish to put both in my book. I have a fair one of yours, but none of his. I suppose his secretary used to answer & write his letter to me.

Lovingly & gratefully yours
