My dear Mr. McGuire:-
Your kind letter of the 18th of this month, came in yesterday's mail. This morning, the two paintings by Tryon and the one by Dewing, arrived at my residence in excellent condition. 
As request, I return herewith, the receipts asked for properly signed. 
Your courteous remarks concerning the little aid I was permitted to extend in connection with your late exhibition, are appreciated, and I congratulate you most warmly, upon the success of your exhibition. 
Believe me,
Sincerely yours, 
Charles L Freer
