Text of letter addressed to Miss Sarah Hancock from B. P. Hooker:

Russellville, Ky
Mch. 9 1908
Miss Sarah Hancock, Fredericksburg, Ind.
Cousin Sarah-
I saw a few days ago a notice of the death of B. Hooker Hancock who I suppose was your brother and as I haven't heard anything from the family in a number of years I would be glad if you would answer this and tell me how many of your brothers & sisters are still living etc
I am now in this town where I have always lived since I came to Kentucky. I will send this notice to my sister Mary who lives in Wilson Co. Tenn. so that she may know of Cousin Hooker's death. If I hear from this I will write more in regard to our family.

Yours truly, B. P. Hooker

The letter writer is Benjamin Phylandia Hooker, a physician at Russellville, Kentucky, son of Johnathan Frizelle Hooker and Margaret Gwynn. B.P.'s father (Johnathan Frizelle Hooker) and Sarah E. Hancock's mother (Elizabeth Hooker Mills Hancock) are siblings. B.P. and Sarah E. are first cousins, their grandparents being Benjamin Hooker, 1764-1834, and Anne Frizelle, 1769-1862.
