Kerby A. Miller's typed transcript and a photocopy of a letter written by William King in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to his sister, Jane Anne Little, in Enniskillen, County Fermanagh. Per Miller: 'Along with the letter was a tag, with the name and drawing of King's business. It was William King & Co., Wholesale Grocers and Importers, 247 and 249 North Second Street, Philadelphia, Pa. Established 1857. The drawing shows that King's business was located in two separate, large 32-story buildings, one the office and the other the warehouse, which stood on either side of a street which intersected North Second Street.'
