Arnold & Co. Florence, S. C., Sept. 30, 1002. Messrs. Arnold & Co., Henoist Building, St. Louis, Mo.?Gentlemen: Somewhere in my education I came across the expression, "Out of the heart the mouth > speaketh," and I pour out to you mo my heart in gratitude for your wei iuterest in my welfare. In fact, 'nJ' 1 can truthfully say no one, in fo * my pilgrimage of sixty yearp ^ through this vale of teara, ever ^ ^ offered me such a chance to step * 'seo out of the clothes of Lazarus into 11 HI the habiliments of Dive", (pre 8al] vtour to his resident^in Hades.) j)m I Friends with me have beeu tliu scarce, my life has been one mo round of efforts to survive, and pa? | few have been the helping hands or(' I extended. But it is a long lane un< that lias no turning, and 1 feel . J 011 ^ I?hat at last the dream of my . bet I youth to be rich is about to be I fulfilled, and that this good for- p ! tune is from an unseen hand, a j)iv; !str?nger. Truly is it that a (j;e prophet hath no honor in hi* own oon I country, aud the aame undonbt. ''lie 1 ledly applies to other trades and, pai vocations. Shall 1 accept yourj ( tT"er to write for particulars ?' * I No! uever! This would be doubt J ^ < ; ing your sincerity ; every word 551,1 I you have spoken is. Holy i not to be controverted, doubted : ^ I or dismissed; and with the faith \%,u\ of a child 1 rush into the arms ofjstu your cfTVr and pillow my expect-1 Ml1 ant mind, body and estate upon i ? a . , , fro your noble bosom. t_ Now. sincg, you havo boon so Wn sreuerous with me I have deter- in mined to tax the bank of your ma I nu heart still further by requesting you to outer me in the rac-s for j prosperity for the modest sum of ,s one million dollars, to be paid in Wi weekly installments out of the 3 P?l per cent, guarantee. This should pay the principal in 33$ weeks, I?H and at the end of the year you Qjj would l-o duo rue $f>GG,000 as in- Th terent. Now, 1 will probably get Fo my ideas changed as I enj >y tliis vast prosperity, and may and probably will do as other rich persons; that is, beeome n lover ' of money and have the stream of l^01 my present good intentions damn- ? ed up with sordid aims, so while in a state of nature I suggest that U1C your generosity needs componsa- i ^u. t tion, and if you send at once your' check fr r one hundred thousand, dollars I will assign you the bal j ne' ! ATtl-A nf thia Vft-jp'a 1 t - ! I .?.?>?/ W. iii?o j vui o 1 11 IC/1 rnif \j i i t $460,000, and start the m.?w year'10, with a taste of wealth and its ae cumulating dangers. Again as- u puring you that I will never for ] ? get you and that I will always i * remember ,\ou in my prayers!6, until wraith has caused mo to) a cease to pray, and in that event we I will kindly mention you in my ^r< will as among the friends I least c'e desire to part with. Wishing you success in this life and a happy transition to the realms of bliss, ?' I remain yours devotedly. W. F.
