Withee Wis,
Dec 24. 1901

Mrs Stanford,
Dear Lady

I see a piece in the paper
about your kindness in
giving away so much of your
Property for good deeds. A
whisper seemed to tell me
that you would also help
me in my trouble. I will
tell you how it is we lived
in the southern part of this
state until a year ago, we
came here, in the hope of
geting [sic] a home of our own.
