14 January 1874
Jeffery, Aaron (fl. 1860-1874)
Autograph letter signed
Title: to his uncle Richard
News about his life at school and the formation of an athletic club. Each member of the group put in 50 cents to purchase a trapeze [from which he fell and muddied his clothing] and "rops with iron rings at the end of them" which you would swing from. Aaron also mentions a "...thing that I never saw before called a whirligig and an acting bar."
