dc.description.transcription“Only one man understands me, and even he does not.” - Hegel. Deport, Texas, July 25, 1933. Mr. Oscar E. Monnig, 312 W. Leuda, Ft. Worth, Texas. Dear sir: I received your letter this morning concerning the fragment of meteorite which I possess am sending it along. (Yes, I heard of your purchasing one from Mr. Williamson) I find your price ($3) propitious and hope the interior structure is to your liking. I would, however, take less if it isn’t what I represented it to be - I said approximately eight ounces! Should the analysis prove it to be worthless I see no reason for returning it to me. I should, however, desire a few moments privacy with the editor of “The Deport Times,” Who pronounced it meteorite. Yes! Here’s hoping, et cetera. So long, Edgar L. Bryson R.F.D. 2, Deport, Texas Glad you liked the quotation - you might look me up in “Kaleidograph,” or other poetry mags - The March number of “Kaleidograph.”
