                             January 4, 1845. Adhesive canceled with “131” numeral handstamp of
                             Edinburgh. Letter refers to a meeting of the contributors to the Royal
                             Infirmary on Monday, January 6, 1845. Letter apparently missed last mail
                             pickup of the day and was marked “TOO LATE” to indicate reason for
                             possible delay in delivery.
