March 24th., 1921.
Mr. Charles W. Chesnutt, 1106 Williamson Bldg., Cleveland, Ohio.
Dear Sir:

We are in receipt of the contracts, which are satisfactory to us and you may expect the check in a week or ten days along with your copy. Our delay in closing up this has been due to my time being so greatly consumed in the completion of our forth coming production, "The Gunsaulus Mystery," which will be shown at the Temple Theatre, four days beginning May 2nd., and if you would bear this in mind and take the time to go and see the same, it is a fair demonstration of our ability to produce pictures.

Assuring you that you may expect to hear from us as set forth above, we are

Very truly, MICHEAUX FILM CORP. Oscar Micheaux CCF.OM
