Typescript letter signed Hinton E. Carr, Birmingham, Alabama, to Presley N. Hicks, St. Louis, Missouri. “. . . . I have made all the financial arrangements that will be necessary to properly prosecute the land matter. In fact I have made arrangements already to go to Texas about the 15th of next Month, but should you feel any hesitancy about the matter in any way I would not have you to sign the Contract under any circumstances, but I could not proceed without authority from you to do so and that is the full purport and intent of the Contract.”, 1902 Jan 8
