In this letter, an employee of Williamson & Mendenhall is answering E. E. Stokes' previous request for information regarding clothes and supplies he will need for gold mining in the Klondike (the letter is written to Stokes in New York, N.Y.). The unknown author details specific types of clothing such as shirts, pants, socks, shoes, etc. (along with their prices). The letter also suggests supplies such as a shoulder bag and a sleeping bag appropriate for the Alaskan weather. An annotated illustration of a jacket is glued to the first page and a heavy cloth sample that was pinned to the front page is in an envelope with the letter. The letter is signed "Williamson & Mendenhall."
