Wadman, postmarked 22 August 1963, enclosing a letter asking that the bible be put into safekeeping at St. Peter's Cathedral.

Nota general
The letter sending the bible to St. Peter's in 1963 is transcribed as follows:
Arlington 74, MASS, Aug. 1963
Apocrypha
Dear Edgar: --
I want you to do me a favor that I will be forever thankful to you -- this is the one thing I have been trying to do for years.
I am sending you the Holy Bible that my Father gave me years ago, it has the family record of the family of Henry D. Wadman and I wish to have it put in safe keeping at St. Peter's Cathedral where it belongs, it has been in danger many times in the last years and St. Peter's Church is the only safe place to have it deposited. Will you see that it is placed there Ed, and I will be grateful to you. Do this for one of your best friends.
"Hare"
P.S. I AM SENDING IT BY AIR EXPRESS
