CHlCACio, Januar\- 5, 1882. Hon. Isaac X. Arnold, President of the Cliieago Hislor.cal Society, M\' Dkar Sir: — I have obser\-cd with ijleasurc that \-rHir Society is initiating a ])roject to cele- brate the two-iumdredth anniversary of the discovery of the mouth of the Mississippi River, by LaSalie. Xothing, in my judgment, can be more approiiriate than the commemoration of that great his- toric event by the historical associations of the States in the Valleys of the Mississippi and Ohio River...s, and by all the people therein who have lived to sec the de\'elopmcnt which has followed the work of the great discoverer. l'"ull\' appreciating what )-ou have undertaken, and desiring to cooperate with you, I respectfully authorize \'ou to draw on me for One Thousand {$1000) Dollars for the purpose of procuring the painting of a portrait of LaSalle, providing it can be done from existing material, to exhibit on the occasion of the celebration, and after that to adorn the walls of your Society.
