Incomplete Letter from J. I. Weaver

J. I. Weaver writes to the Home regarding the children of J. C. Reynolds and his wife. He says that Mr. Reynolds died three years ago, and last Friday the 12th, Mrs. Reynolds died and left two little boys. Her last request was that the boys be taken to the Baptist Orphans Home; the oldest will be 7 in May, the youngest "will be 5 soon." Weaver asks to make application for the boys. On the back, Weller writes, "Apl 19 1895 Answered, requesting usual recommendation from the church." Letter marked London, KY.
