Edwin Booth, Proprietor and Manager

Manager's Office. New York, Jan 21st 1873

J. Hutchinson Esq

Dear Sir:

I am sorry I have nothing of my Father's that I can part with - [or you?] should have it. The burning of "Winter Garden" some years ago robbed me of almost everything in the way of relics, and there is nothing now left to the family but a few trifles that we cling to as precious heirlooms. Pardon my delay in replying & believe me Truly yours, Edwin Booth
