Elliston, Esq., relating to contract matters. It reads, in part, ??I will fully live up to anything I say. You [may] take for granted the same as I would you anything that you say, and had you asked me for an amount equal to a matinee as a conditional release I would have been too pleased to have mailed you my cheque? .? With rubber-stamped signature of Lafayette. Tears, soiling, and folds, with loss to first sheet affecting two or three words.
