I recid your kind note of the 13th: with papers &c, & welcome they was.
I was surprised & greived grieved
to hear of my old friend Jeffs
death. He was a grand good boy, & I well remember the many long walks he & I
had together.—
He was a good
true friend & often at my own fireside I speak of him of one of the lads I knew
who had true Sterling qualities of manhood in him. Peace to his memory. I did hope
to meet him again & talk of old times I shall meet him on the "Other Shore" I
trust.
With a heart full of love to you my dear friend,
I am Yours truly Sam. G. Stanley. 323 Macon St.
