Transcription
James W. Allison Esq. Richmond, Va. Dear Sir, I am writing now merely to say that I expect to be in Richmond Monday next and leave there Tuesday morning for Baltimore, so that I shall have abundance of time to do what is necessary to settle the questions of finish and of trim. Purdy is ready to ship all of his material, but I feel it will be best to wait at least another week so that the walls will have more time to be dried out. I hope the furnace has been working steadily. Your's Truly, T. Henry Randall [ALS, T. Henry Randall to James W. Allison, April 15, 1895, on letterhead: T. Henry Randall Architect 52 Broadway. New York.] [edited by TOC]
