Lamb, John, Washington, Indiana, to James Alphonsus McMaster, New York, New York, 1877 December 10

 Item
Identifier: CMMA I-2-b

Scope and Contents

Lamb sends McMaster $5.00 to buy a 20th part of a ticket in the Royal Havanah Lottery. If McMaster does not believe that this is an honest lottery he is not to buy the ticket. He asks McMaster to do this because he has secured several new subscribers to the Freeman's and because his father has subscribed since 1858. The drawing comes off on the 31st of Dec. but if his entrance is too late he wishes to be included in the drawing of Jan. 17, 1878. This is to be done only if the lottery is honest, and if not, he sends his return address for the money. :: I-2-b A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.
