McMaster, A. L., Poland, Ohio, to James Alphonsus McMaster, New York, New York, 1869 May 18
Scope and Contents
He encloses the February issue of the Family Treasure, which contains a steel-engraved portrait of their deceased brother. He may have sent McMaster a copy before, but he has been sick and suffered many interruptions, and cannot remember. The portrait is said to be an admirable likeness by those who knew him in his later years. The engraving was made from Wilson's so-called Presbyterian Historical Almanac, and in that work is a brief and inaccurate notice of their brother. He can forward a copy if McMaster wishes it. A. L. was sick in March and April and was confined to bed for nearly four weeks. His health is now good and his strength increasing. His brother Crawford McMaster at Goodland, Indiana was at latest account, well, as was nephew Gilbert M. McMaster of Pittsburgh. He sends his kind remembrances. :: I-1-n A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.
