My dear Mr Douglass
Accept my sincere thanks for "My Bondage & Freedom" Pardon me for my inability to sympathize in your regret at him "unable to find a better copy" The fact of these books [illegible] having been your own
growth in honor with value in my eyes—The book will always hold an honored place in my library as the work & possession of a great & good man who has done much to wipe out an [illegible] institution [forever?]
With great regard
Yours truly
A H Christie
