Letter signed A.M. von Phul, Lexington, to Mrs. Rosalie von Phul, St. Louis. I attended Mr. Ward’s marriage to Miss S. Clifford. I cannot sell my stock without making an unjustifiable sacrifice. I shall only give Mr. Palmer my power of attorney and leave things as they are. (Gift of John Richardson Thomas and Henry von Phul Thomas, January 1954), 1821 May 18
