and its cost will be twenty
two thousand dollars. Marble to
to be the finest quality statuary
and execution of work like
that of your sons bust.

Just at present I am making
a life size group, but should you
care to have me start the studies
with the view to making the group
I would not let the above work
stand in the way. Photographs
of the sketches would be sent to
you for approval or suggestion pre-

the group will stand in the center
of the court to be seen from all sides or in a place constructed
for it to be put into.

Trusting I may have the pleasure of
hearing from you again upon
the subject believe me
dear Madam with kindest regards

Yours most sincerely
William Couper
