5 Richmond Road,
Catterick Camp,
Yorks.

5th August, 1963

Dear Mr. Green

I saw your letter in the Impartial Reporter. You might
be interested in the attached copy of a letter which is pasted
in the front of my family Bible. It was written about my
Great Grandfather, by someone who emigrated to Chicago at the
time of the famine in Ireland.

I have typed the copy exactly as it was published,
All one paragraph.

Yours sincerely,
(signed)John Nixon
