DOWNLOAD EBOOKGreeley, editor of the New York Tribune, writes to Graham, a minister and reformer. Declines Graham's request of publishing an article by a Mr. [Cambell?]. Writes, He is now doing well, making some money... and perfectly able to pay for any service done him- much more than I am to give him any. Now such an article as yours in all my papers is worth to him [dollar sign] 50, while I can only publish it at my own loss... I stand, therefore, on a just and necessary rule, which, I wish, I had adopted earlier and could now insist on... that a service at my own cost and to the becoming benefit of another, is either worth [paying?] for or it is not worth doing. Mentions Cambell's involvement in waterbus establishments and writes I have attended to his advantages of Mountain air, scenery, &c. again in a recent article in 'Summer Travel.' 1 black and white bust engraving of Greeley included.
