Item description from seller

Clara Barton was a Civil War nurse who founded the American Red Cross. An undated 3-paragraph letter in 16 lines addressed to: "Dear Dr. Albert, Not before Friday evening. I shall not be through with Lockowana Station an hour before that I suppose. "I don't feel that I can come rid of all this work and confusion and say anything that could interest anybody, nor even read understandingly. .I want to look once more in your faces. And will try to hold moderately intact like I can. With best-terms to dear Mrs. L. Yours in haste, Clara Barton" An attractive letter on lined paper, in very good condition with light toning and a bit of paper loss to the left edge. With the Certificate of Authenticity.
