Transcript

November 4, 1925 PGC:EG Mrs. Charles M. Russell, Great Falls, Mont. Dear Mrs. Russell: Thank you very much for your note with the surprising information that you have already been kind enough to ship Charlie's little picture of Mt. Helena and the mining scene on for my in- spection. I appreciate this courtesy very much. There is no doubt about my liking it for I like all of Charlie’s things. I seriously doubt caring to pay the price you mention, but will not go into this with you until after I have seen the picture itself. The picture has not yet arrived. I will notify you whenever it does. With every good wish to both of you, Sincerely yours, [signed] Philip G. Cole Dr. P. G. Cole, 470 Vanderbilt Ave. Brooklyn, N. Y.
