S. E. CHURCH TO TILDEN

(WOULD LIKE TO MAKE SOME MONEY)

"ROCHESTER, _Jan. 27, '70_.

"My dear Sir,--This is my first letter written by myself. You inquire

what my physician thinks and what I think about my recovery. My

physician and others who have been consulted all say that my recovery

is certain and will be perfect, restoring me to full health, but that

it will require time on account of my great prostration.

"I have had the 'blues' occasionally, but I believe I shall recover and

be well. I am confined to my bed most of the time, but am able to sit

up some and walk a little.

"I would like to make some money. Is there not some speculation by

which I can do so?

"Why don't you get interviewed?

"Please write.

"Yours truly,

"S. E. CHURCH."
