The letterhead of this two-page manuscript letter describes A. H. Poe as an award-winning breeder of Silver Penciled Wyandotte chickens and Indian Runner ducks in Jackson, Cape Girardeau County, Missouri. However, on the first page of the letter Jackson has been crossed out and Blodgett written in its place.
