May 25th, 1921.

Mr. Robert C. Stephenson,
44 – B Morgan Park,
Duluth, Minnesota.

Dear Sir:
Replying to your letter of the 21st with reference to visiting your brother, Gilbert H. Stephenson, on Saturday, May 28th.
I beg to advise that this will be satisfactory but it will be necessary for you to arrive here before 2:00 p.m. Would prefer having you come in the morning.
You may bring this letter with you and the Turnkey will arrange the visit.

Yours truly,


Warden, Minn. State Prison
JJS/RN
