    Buffalo Sept 12, 1859

    My Dear Friend

    Several gentlemen of this City expressed to me this evening an anxiety to have you visit this City. They informed me they had written Govr Chace [Chase] to that effect, and at their request I wish to say that I desire to second their efforts to get you here I have no doubt you will do them much good

    I hope you will come without fail

    Very truly

    J R Giddings
