Hudson, Wis.
|MR. BILL NYE.--Dear Sir: I hope you will pardon me for addressing you
on a matter of pure business, but I have heard that you are not averse
to going out of your way to do a favor now and then to those who are
sincere and appreciative.
I have learned from a friend that you have been around all over the
west, and so I have taken the liberty of writing you to ask what you
think would be the chance of success for a young man if he were to go to
Kansas to enter the drug business.
I am a practical young druggist 23 years of age, and have some money--a
few hundred dollars--with which to go into business. Would you advise
Kansas or Colorado as a good part of the west for that business?
I have also written some for the press, but with little success. I
inclose you a few slips cut from the papers in which these articles
originally appeared. I send stamp for reply and hope you will answer
me, even though your time may be taken up pretty well by other matters.
Respectfully yours.
Adolph Jaynes,
Lock-Box 604.
