Chicago, July 12th, 1875.

My Dear Draper:

The Plans and Specifications for Gallery in Historical Rooms were sent you by Mail. Did you receive them, and were they are you desired?

I returned on Friday from the Southern Illinois Hospital at Anna -- now Cairo, where I am doing a good deal of work. It is nearly 400 miles away, and that takes a good deal of my time. Am to go there again on the night of the 14th to return about the 18th.

Can I help you about your Library Building? Please let me know if the Gallery Plans were all right.

Very Hastily, etc.
S. V. Shipman
