Letter to Miss Abercrombie from Atta Peck, August 1906.

Peck writes to the Home to ask if it is possible to "again get the little child Lelia While," stating that "circumstances over which I had no control prevented me from keeping her before, but now they are remond and we would gladly take her again this time to keep her." She says that her "greatest gault was untruthfullness," but that she knows now "she can be broken of that." She says if it is impossible to get Lelia again, she would like an enfant girl, "healthy and nicely formed and desireable babe." Letter marked Lebanon, KY.
