Ans Card

Ogden March the 4th 1896

Mrs Leland Stanford dear Madam permit me to congratulate you on the succesful [sic] termination of the suit in the Supreme Court of the U.S. the Goverment [sic] has of late been so persistingly prosecuting against you I have watched the case with a great deal of interest. I have been particularly anxious, and very much desired that you might come out victorious, having been so long acquainted with Gov Stanford and knowing of his philanthropic and charitable disposition, having been so magnanimous in the disposition of his immense wealth benefiting and blessing so many of his fellow beings, he being a particular and warm friend of mine, I felt doubly anxious in the outcome of your suit in the courts, please pardon me for thus trespassing upon your valuable time, trusting this will find you in the enjoyment of good health as it leaves me and mine. Very truly I have the honor of subscribing myself your Friend,

Lorin Farr
