| Transcript | Birmingham Mich, [Michigan?] June 8th 1890. Friend Annie You will probably be surprised to hear from me, but surprises and disappointments are both common to this world and I presume you are used to both by this time. However that may be I will explain my object in writing and agree not to afflict you with another letter without your consent. I think I know nearly what your feelings were towards me in the past, whether they have changed or not I do not know but I do know that mine have towards you for I have learned to appreciate sense and sincerity better than I used to, and so write requesting, if you have no other gentleman friend of whom you think more highly, that we correspond hereafter. If this meets with your approval please let me hear from you. Yours sincerely, Caleb Jackson |
