Preston, Mrs. Walter, New York, New York, to James Alphonsus McMaster, New York, New York, 1886 December 23
Scope and Contents
She read of his illness in the papers, and remembers him as one of the staunchest friends of her father, Colonel Frank Peyton of Virginia, who lived in New York for several years before the war and always remembered McMaster's affectionate interest. She and her family have come back to New York and have struggled hard for a foothold. She has often wished to meet McMaster, and now that he is ill, she wishes to express her sincere sympathy. If McMaster is able to receive visitors she would like to visit him with her young son, whom she brought in the hope that he may be able to secure a livelihood, and who has been successful. She hopes McMaster's health will return soon. :: I-2-g A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
