March 31.
Dear Mr. Matthews:
Most sincere thanks for your kind invitation, but I dasn’t. I am here on a whole raft of business, & people will be coming to me all day by appointment to get themselves swindled. I must be on draft on all the time. But I am hoping & expecting to forgather with you at the wake, tonight.
Yrs Ever
Mark T.
