Remington to Arthur B. Turner, [December] 1891. Western History Department, Denver Public Library, Denver, Colorado. [Note: Although Remington did not date this letter there are two memos on it from Turner to Davis, one of which is dated December 31, 1891. We feel certain that the letter dates to 1891, but the month is tentative.]
