Letter from Percy Griffin to James W. Allison discussing their previous meeting.

Transcription

Dear Mr. Allison— I was much pleased to see you the other day when you called at my office and I appreciate the interest you have show in me during this unfortunate discussion which has given you so much unnecessary trouble— Nothing could have been [than cancelled] nicer than your expressions of regard for me professionally as well as personally and I thank you for them. Knowing your opinions— as I do in this matter— which to me are very satisfactory— I shall drop the discussion hoping that by doing so it may make it easier for you, and notwithstanding my regret I shall always think of our transactions in the pleasantest way. Believe me, my dear Sir Very Sincerely yours Percy Griffin. 27th Dec. '94 James W. Allison Esq. 27th Dec. '94 Richmond Va. 48 Exchange Place. [ALS, Percy Griffin to James W.
