passage written by Cather on separate enclosure. | written text |
Can you, as a banker, tell me any way to get my money out of this trust? It is in the Mellon Pittsburgh3 bank4. As you can see from enclosed statements it pays very little now, and the statements are so complicated I cannot read them. The trust was made long ago, and the amount of it was at that time nearly all the money I had. I knew some of the bank officers then, but since they have all died.
I have been in bed with influenza for a week, and my hand is not very steady yet. I'll be grateful for your advice.
Love to you Willie
