33 Ferry Avenue, East,
Detroit, Michigan,
February 8th, 1909.

Mrs. Herman J. Hall,
The Chicago Academy of Fine Arts,
6 Madison Street,
Chicago, Illinois.

Dear Madam:-

In further reply to your letter of January 30th, let me say. That if you have a photograph of the Japanese Bronze, I shall be glad to examine it. I dislike to put you to the trouble of sending the piece itself, as I judge (from your description) that it is probably of a period later than that in which I have a particular interest, and a photograph would be quite satisfactory to examine, on this point, as the original piece itself.

Believe me,
Sincerely yours,
Charles L Freer
