Letter is addressed to a “Mr. Watson F. Masterson” of Ramsey, West Virginia and reads in full: “Dear Sir. Without going into details can assure you that we are not related; even remotely. My father was born in this state eighty years ago and moved to Illinois where I was born fifty one years ago.

My father had but one brother and he was several years the eldest and has been dead about forty years and died without issue. Very respectfully. W.B. Masterson”.
