Hot Springs, Va., Oct. 21st, 1899.

My dear Mrs. Wilson: - 
Your good letter of the 16th inst. reached me here, where I am spending a couple of weeks.
I am pleased to know that you are so well satisfied with the sale of the coupler company. A prominent business man of New York has promised to accompany me to Sheffield some time during November, and it may be possible that he will purchase the farm. I cannot, of course, say definitely until he has seen the place. 
I thank you for reminding me of the bills against the farm, which I have paid, and I think they may as well run on until the first of January, unless the farm is sold in the meantime.
I am very happy indeed to learn that your son William has secured a position with the Illinois Steel Company, and trust he will meet with full success.

With kind regards, I am,
Sincerely yours,

Mrs. W.M. Wilson,
#4551 Woodlawn Avenue,
Chicago, Ill.
