Dear Hattie
I met Mr Albree on
the street a few minutes
ago - He wished me to write
to you to come on immediately,
Miss Wittenmyer expects to
be through here in 3 or 4 days
I don't suppose you will
be able to come till next week
of course. If there is anything
to prevent your coming right
on let me know it at once
If I hear [^nothing] from you I will
expect you next Monday or
Tuesday. There is a train
starts from Wooster [?at?]
1/2 past 8-o-clock A M &
gets here at 10 minutes past 3 [u]PM[/u]
The Cleveland train leaves
Cleveland at 8 A M & gets
here at 3-o clock & 40 minutes
I will try & be at the
[u]Allegheny City[/u] depot at
3-o-clock so as to meet you
If there is nothing in your
trunk which you will wish to
use while here [--perhaps--] you had
better have it checked in Pittsburg
as it will then will be at the
right peace to start on the
Central Road. Albree says
it will be better for you
if you can, to be here so
as to go with Miss Wittenmyer
as she can get you [u]free[/u]
transportation on the
rail road. My box has'nt
yet arrived - Bring the
express receipt if you have
it although I expect the box
will be here before you are
I expect to go with you .
If anything should happen
so that I was not at the depot when
you come - if you leave a note at
[u]Kindes Blairs[/u] Eating Establishment
I will get it at [illegible] (or at Box 630 Post Office).
[Note: written horizontally across page 2)
1/2 Past 5 P M: or be there yourself. That is where I eat- an
then at 8 A M, 1/2 past 12 & 1/2 past 5, expect however to meet
you at the depot Yours HM

Blairs Eatting
House is only a
