speaks for itself:
LETTER OF THANKS.
Chicago, Nov. 5th, 1902
Mr. Louis Z.
Harrison,
Manager of the Arlington Hotel,
Marlin,
Texas.
My Dear Mr. Harrison:--
I have been instructed by the Executive
Committee of this Association to tender through you and your mayor, whose name I
have forgotten, the thanks of this Association for the entertainment provided
for us, while on our recent excursion through Texas.
At no place along the line, were we so
warmly received, as we were in Marlin, and you can rest assured that the
interest of your beautiful little city, and its praises will be sung by the
excursionists, who were with you that day, and I trust that in the near future
the little City of Marlin will hear from this little entertainment, which you
provided for us in a substantial manner.
Once more thanking you for your welcome and
hope to see you again and drink of the water so famous throughout Texas, which
goes far towards making Marlin one of the most famous health resorts of the
world.
Yours truly,
Fred C. Pickert,
Secretary.
