August 4, 1932 ^[[checkmark]] Mr. Clyfford Trevor, C/O Jacques Seligmann & Fils, Ancien Hotel de Sagan, 57, Rue Saint Dominique, Paris, FRANCE. My dear Mr. Trevor, I am in receipt of your letter of July 18 which was forwarded to me from Palm Beach, Florida. I note that a portrait of SERGEANT MURPHY by Sir William Orpen has been placed on the market and you make inquiries if I would be interested in the purchase of it. I have heard much of this artist, and realize the value of his paintings; however I would not be interested in securing this portrait as I have no personal attachment for the subject. I am taking the liberty of informing Mr. John Sanford that this portrait is for sale. The horse, SERGEANT MURPHY was owned by his son. With kindest personal regards, I am, Sincerely, [[underlined]] ^[[ER Bradley]] [[/underlined]] ERB/TSB.
