Collection of Business Records from Marshall and Tyler, Texas: Letters, Billheads, and Envelopes (1876-undated)
This collection comprises three items: a letter dated December 8, 1876, from I. Dreyfus, a dry goods merchant in Marshall, Texas, to a law firm in Tyler, Texas; a billhead from the National Bank of Jefferson in Marshall, Texas (undated); and an envelope addressed to James Turner in Tyler, Texas, with a return address for I. Dreyfus, Robertson & Herndon in Marshall, Texas (undated). The letter details a lawsuit, mentioning Mr. Levy and D. Doppelmayer, who appears to manage Dreyfus's business. The collection also includes a cover with a blue Marshall postmark and a list of cash sent to Jefferson totaling $9,766.00. The connection to Jefferson, Arkansas, is suggested by the presence of numerous Dreyfus family members buried in Jefferson County, Arkansas.
