Source Description
These telegrams, addressed to Samuel May at Cornhill Street in Boston, read, "You must come" and "Only your presence will do." This correspondence presumably relates to a libel suit in which Still is charged by a Mrs. Wells. See also MS B.1.6 v.8, p.9, MS B.1.6 v.8, p.10 and MS B.1.6 v.8, p.12.
