Dear Mr. Coate,

I believe you may have an original letter written by Benjamin Lippencott to his sister Amelia, dated 1 October 1849. If so, it may be very useful for the historical research I am doing for the California State Capitol Museum. Please contact me via email at ethomsen at parks.ca.gov or by phone at 916-324-0333. I look forward to hearing from you!

Sincerely,
Eric Thomsen
