<salute>Dear Sir:</salute></opener>

<p>I have purchased from the sisters of the late <persName xml:id="alger.h">H. C. Alger</persName> all of the remaining assets of his estate, and in this purchase received an assignment of his one-fourteenth interest in the Cody Town-site, which is in a trusteeship with you as trustee.</p>

<p>I enclose herewith the assignment together with a certified copy of Mr. Alger's will, and also certified copy of the order of the District Court decreeing the title <del>interest</del> in Mr. Alger's sisters. Please furnish me with evidence of transfer.</p>

<p>In your letter of November 23rd to Mr. Perkins, he tells me that you asked that the other owners in this proposition be given an opportunity to purchase this interest, and I wish to say that if you desire, I would be glad to receive from you a proposition for such purchase, realizing that you would prefer undoubtedly to keep this interest within the original owners. I will be glad to entertain any proposition you may make. </p>

<closer>
<salute>Very truly,</salute>
