Item description from seller

Folio. 4 pages, approximately 600 words. "Atlanta: we can see in the distance her spires, the smoke of business, each tending heavenward betraying her locality to those that would be boistrous and bully-proud of being the agents of her downfall and gloat over the form in the posture of subjugation." Written in a flowery artistic hand. Folded (some small breaks at fold corners), with original mailing envelope, with a "Nashville, Ten." postmark.
