Georgetown Col. T., Jan 8, cds on fresh cover to Ripon, Wis., with red manuscript "Paid", original 1868 enclosure with interesting content…In Central City about two weeks ago a (man) poisoned his wife…some four or five years ago I wrote to you that I was going to get married and the girl rather played off on me. That was the same girl and (on) her dying bed she told her mother that she would like to see me and talk to me but I was twenty miles away and she did not send for me…I can forgive her…but let her go to the place where she may enjoy everlasting bliss or anything else, Very Fine, an unusual and rare stampless usage possibly due to a temporary shortage of stamps, the earliest recorded usage of this postmark.
