                                                                                                            Nov. 25th 94.
 
General E.M. Law,
 
            Dear Sir,
                        Your letter of the 19th inst. has been duly received. For the capital ambrotype portrait of your self I am exceedingly obliged, as it will make a most interesting addition to my collection of Civil War officers.
 
            I am making a strong effort to find some one among my/acquaintances who will purchase the entire lot with me, in order that I may select the few lots that I desire for my own collection, while he retains the balance.
 
            This will probably take some little time, but you may rely upon me to bring the matter to a settlement as soon as possible.
 
            Hoping you will pardon the delay, in consideration of the very dull times, & hoping soon to be able to send you a favorable report, I remain, with deep respect,
 
                        Very truly yours,
                                    Robt. Coster
