Other descriptive data:

Dear Mr. Bagnall,
I enclosed a chip of our wonderful cave. I wish you could come and go out there with me. Col. Brown a very fine old Southern gentleman has opened it to the public and as he has barrels of money it will be a great success for the wonders of the cave and the old town of New Market. Col. Brown sent two men to take my picture last week. I stood in my flower bed as the pretty flowers will hid the old time worn face of your old friend.
E. C. Crim
