 Title:  Letter from Randolph Williams to Miss Mary-Stuart, Oct. 31, 1895 [a machine-readable transcription]  
 Published:  1995 
 Description: I might sit down and at great length tell you of the sorrow that has felled my very soul at the thought of the ruin at the beloved old place and then I might for a long time tell of my heartfelt sympathies with you dear people to whom if possible, the destruction of the sacred place means more than to us who have dwelt there for but a term of years — yet but half would be told, so I will not begin feeling assured that you know well enough my feelings of sympathy and sorrow. So bright, however, is the prospect for speedy relief and the rebuilding of the old place that our sympathies may be turned to congratulations. Of course you have seen of the good work in Richmond and other cities. Here in Baltimore Markham Marshall and I are stirring things up and hope to have a good report before long.
