my opinion is that - besides being an excellent likeness of both mother and child, it is a most artistic picture - I think you may well be proud and happy because of your success - And I feel that we have secured not only a fine portrait, but a very good friend in Mr. John W. Alexander - When the proper time comes we shall be very glad to have you come to Worcester and do the varnishing - With kind remembrance to Mrs. Alexander I remain Very sincerely yours Hester A. Knowles Mrs Francis B. Knowles
