    We are pleased to learn that you are building a Carnegie Library and hope that you will be very successful with the undertaking. It is certainly very generous

    We are this day forwarding to you a copy of our large 'Illustrated Catalogue of Standard and Holiday Books'. We would especially call you attention to the
    introduction to this catalogue.

    When you have made up the list of titles you desire to purchase we hope to receive the same as an order, or to have an opportunity to quote our prices on the same.

    Very truly yours,

    Letter
    HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
    WASHINGTON, D.C.

    W.H.S. Wood,
    Howell, Mich.
    Feb. 27, 1903
    Dear Mr Wood:-
    I enclose some correspondence from the Commissioner of Patents. I feared that they would not vary from what seems to me a very rigid rule in these matters.
    You will notice that the Gazette goes to the Ladies LIbrary at Howell and as doubtless all your libraries will be tranferred to the Carnegie Library,
    you will get the advantage of it for the present, and when the new list is made up, I shall be glad to make the change.
    Yours truly
    S. ? Smith
