General Washburn replies to a note from Benedict, a lawyer in Albany, New York. Writes, "I regret that I had not sooner received it that I might have concentrated even in a very small way to the great charity with which you are connected. As you mention that the purchasers of Albums have been promised autographs which might arrive after the fair, I enclosed you a few of mine."
