April 27/96.

Mr. John A. Russell,
Sec’y, The Chamber of Commerce,
City.

Dear Sir:

On my return to-day from a long absence in the east I find your letter of 11th inst. addressed to Col. Hecker requesting him to meet with Mr. W. S. Crane and others at the Chamber of Commerce building on April 13. Mr. Hecker has been absent some seven months, during which time I have attempted to look after his correspondence, and this letter will explain why yours above mentioned has remained so long unanswered.

Yours truly,
Charles L. Freer
