TLS, one page, 7.25 x 9, personal letterhead, July 4, no year. Letter to Governor Giles, in full: "Just met our mutual friend Walter Trowbridge and gleaned from him the information that you are now in Russia. I sincerely hope that I shall have the pleasure of meeting you in Petersburg within the next 20 months. Best wishes and kindest regards sincerely yours." Houdini adds a postscript: "We sail for Germany August fifth." Affixed to a slightly larger foamcore mount. In very good condition, with overall toning, two light stains at the top from old mounting residue on the reverse, and all of the type extremely faded; the signature, in contrast, is exceedingly bold.
