Buffalo Bill's Wild West
Mattoon IllSep- 25th 01 My. Dear. Kelsey.
Your favor 19th You had better get your rail road transportation extended good for Nov— If you get to Hoffman House New—York Nov 2nd it will be about right— I think you had better keep all maps & c— And bring them with you— And have other maps of Big Horn county and Burlington rail road maps— So we can show our location clearly.
Yours truly W. F. CodyNote: F. C. Kelsey was chief engineer and fully in charge of the work on the Cody & Salsbury Canal. BBWW performed in Mattoon, Illinois, September 25, 1901.
