Dear Sam:

In looking over a lot of old papers I found the enclosed letter from Mr. Ron Tucker written when he was leaving Va to locate in Baltimore. The persons to whom he alludes were wealthy clients of mine in Baltimore to whom I had spoken about employing him with me. I suppose Mr. Harry St. George Tucker wd. Like to have this letter as a memento of his father & your can send it to him.
Yours Truly
J.S. Mosby
