[Text: Edgar Allan Poe to Charles E. West - June 20, 1845.]


Office of the Broadway Journal
June 20th — 1845.
 

        Chas. E. West Esq.

            Dr Sir,

    The previous letter to which you allude did not reach me — I trust, therefore, that you will exonerate me from the charge of discourtesy.

    I shall be happy to oblige you in any way — and it will give me very great pleasure to act as one of a Committee in which I shall be associated with two gentlemen whom I so highly respect as Drs Griswold and Snodgrass.

    My time is entirely at your disposal — whenever you will be kind enough to let me know that you require it.

Very respectfully                  .
Yr ob. St.             .
Edgar A Poe  .
