Partial Text from Letter (?); Autograph (from Sketchbook)
Black and white image of a piece of paper with handwritten text and sketches. The paper is rectangular and has a white background with gray smudges and pencil marks. The handwritten text is in black ink and appears to be a letter or note. The text reads: - "Cadet Whistler was 'B.'" - "to 'C' company in the" - [indecipherable] - "Cadet James Whistler" - "West Point A." The text is written in a flowing, cursive script. There is a small sketch of a face on the bottom left corner of the paper. The face appears to be a simple pencil drawing. The word "Corn" is written below the sketch. In the bottom right corner, the number "77" is written in small black ink. The paper has a rough, uneven edge. The background behind the paper is plain white.
