CHAS. W. CHESNUTT. 1105 WILLIAMSON BUILDING CLEVELAND, O.
July 14, 1906.
Mr. EmmetEmmett J. Scott, Tuskegee, Ala.
My dear Mr. Scott:-

Replying to your letter of recent date, I have made inquiry and had others inquire for me, and have been unable to find any qualified stenographer who would care to go south to take a position. All the qualified ones that I could learn of are employed. However, if I hear of any one and you are not by that time supplied, I shall be glad to give you the name.

Yours very truly, Chas. W. Chesnutt
