Description
In this typed letter, Wess writes from Cuba to Emmett L. Ray in Kosciusko, Mississippi in response to a letter he'd received. He informs Emmett that he'd been sick for the past several days and describes the ineffectual nature of the doctors in Cuba. He goes on to invite Emmett and Annie to come to Havana for their vacation and jests that he'd enjoy seeing Annie enjoying the casinos and other entertainments to be found there. He interjects some slight details about the mills the company owns and the sugar prices affecting the plantations. The letter is written on Campania Azucarera Antilla, S.A. stationary.
