Seghill, Dudley

Northumberland

April 6th, 1875.

Dear Sir,

You would oblige me exceedingly by favouring me with your portrait.

I suppose we all have our failings and weak spots somewhere, and it may be that one of mine is, to get all (portraits of) the authers [sic] I love and put them into my album. Having read your book on "Miracles and Modern spiritualism"2 you have at once delighted and instructed me.

Trusting you will be able to grant my request without being at much trouble,

I remain, dear Sir yours in love and esteem, | George Forster.2 [signature]

Mr A. W. Russell. [sic]
