Family Letters: Albert Sanders letter to Lucy Reed Lawrence

7/19/'07

Mrs. J.D. Lawrence,
    %McKinley Hotel., Canton, O.

Dear Lillie:-
    
    I herewith enclose a letter that came today, also a letter from Mr. Quinby and my reply to the latter. The mystery of the loss of $200.00 or $300.00 or whatever it may be, is unsolved, as you will see from reading Mr. Quinby's letter. I don't know what to make of it. Mr. Quinby in his letter speaks of John's helping him to pay off the men - also says he said he did not have any money with him but would have some in a few days. The situation is quite mysterious and I do not know that we can solve it..

    We are all getting along - that is what there is of us, at our house, all right. We expect the girls to be home some time next week. The two boxes came by express yesterday. I opened one of them and found it contained that fish and John's picture. I will not open the other one until you get here and then you can make what disposition you wish of them. I take it that you are spending this week with Mrs. Harrison and that probably we shall not see you until some time next week.

    With great love, 
                                                                            Sincerely
                                                                                    AD. Sanders
