He regrets that he is unable to assist Greenough in his enquiries. He closes 'With pleasant memories of your Grandfather, and with the Compliments of the season'. The engraved portrait of a bearded Paige in late middle-age, has beneath it a facsimile of his signature. It is in good condition, neatly presented and lightly attached to a paper mount.
