582. Emilie Todd Helm to Jesse W. Weik?.

Elizabethtown Ky. [1887 — 89?]

Dr Sir

I belive I have given you all the information you ask for — I think you could perhaps get an autograph from Mrs Edwards — I cannot consent to part with mine — If there is any other information you desire that I can give you of course it will give me pleasure to give it to you — Enclosed you will find some printed matter that you can perhaps use — Please return it to me as I have taken them from the book I am making for my Son & would not like to lose them —

Very Respectfully
E T Helm

Notes.

1. The recipient is postulated on the basis of the request for an autograph, something unlikely for WHH but quite likely for JWW. Written in the top margin in Helm's hand: Genl. Ben. Hardin Helm was Killed at the Battle of Chicamauga — Sept 1863 — .

2. Elizabeth Todd Edwards, wife of Ninian W. Edwards.

3. Not present.
