Title	Selby, Eugenie Debs 1895-11-05
Abstract	Letter from Eugene V. Debs on American Railway Union letterhead, 11/05/1895. Writes that he received Selby's letter dated 11/04/1895. Says that he trusts that Selby and Marguerite Bettrich Debs prepared the contents of the box that came with the letter. Tells Selby that today his prison cell is like a temple where is heart and soul have refuge. Remarks that on his 40th birthday neither iron bars not distance can separate him and his family. Says that the future will be all that he is "capable of making it." Tells Selby that it is necessary for his family to remain in close touch. Writes that he is glad to hear that his nephew is improving. Remarks that Bart Young was pleased to get a piece of Selby's cake. Mentions that Joe Schwerzgen and his wife are visiting him today to make final arrangements for 11/22/1895. Assures Selby that the reception will be an "eye-opener." Includes a transcript of the letter written by Theodore Debs.
