Title	Selby, Eugenie Debs 1874-10-03
Abstract	Letter from Eugene V. Debs, 10/3/1874. Writes that he will not be able to make it home to Terre Haute, Indiana because unemployment is high and he needs to stay where he is so that he can support himself. Says that he will be returning to Terre Haute, Indiana after he has saved a little money and has proved that he can "act manly." Tells Selby that he spends a great deal of time with the Duche family, all of whom think the world of him. Remarks that he heard about Stewart's death before Selby told him about it because he knew the young man. Mentions that he thought that Stewart was a "dead beat." Tells Selby that Johnnie Clay has recently arrived in East St. Louis, Illinois and embezzled $160 from the bank he was working at. Tells Selby that if Johnnie Clay returns to Terre Haute, Indiana that she and the rest of his family should stay away from him. Writes that he expects to have a job next week. Asks that Selby send his regards to the Meger family. Mentions that he is glad to hear from Theodore Debs that the game chickens are doing so well. Says that Terre Haute, Indiana is the only place in the world that he has any love for.
