Miss Ruth McConnell, 149 Beech Street, Greensboro, N. C.
My dear Miss McConnell:

I have your letter of April 19th, asking me for a picture for your booklet of "Great Negroes." I have n't a spare copy of a good photograph, but I send you under another cover a copy of "The Clevelander", the organ of the Cleveland Chamber of Commerce, which contains an article from my pen on "The Negro in Cleveland," illustrated by a very good photograph of myself.

I hope this will serve your purpose, and remain,

Sincerely yours, CWC:ES
