Transcription: Aug. 3rd. '94. James W. Allison Esq. Richmond. Va. Dear Sir, Mr. Randall expects to be in Baltimore Sunday, Monday & perhaps Tuesday next, and will then go to Richmond, telegraphing you in advance. He will have estimates for the finish of Dining Rm. and for the changes in the cornice &c. of Music Rm. [word illegible ] Rm. & Hall. We have also made sketches for changes in the Main Staircase to submit to you and to Mrs. Allison which we think you will prefer to the present arrangement. It affects nothing but the steps themselves. Your's truly Griffin & Randall. [ALS, Griffin & Randall to James W. Allison, August 3, 1894, on letterhead: Griffin & Randall Architects 48 Exchange Place New York] [edited by WDC] |
