The following, submitted September 2005, is from Thomas MacLellan Hall, the grandson of Kenneth F. MacLellan, who was a friend of Edward Arthur Wilson.  

Thomas Hall wrote:  "My grandfather went into the packaged food business, eventually forming United Biscuit Company in Chicago, the precursor to Keebler.  Whatever the origin of their friendship, my grandfather acquired a spectacular pen and ink drawing Mr. Wilson did of a Japanese coronation.  He eventually gave that drawing to my uncle, who later gave it to me.  We now have it proudly displayed in our dining room. A letter from my grandfather is taped to the back of the frame and it includes the photostats transcribed below."

The first photostat is from the Provincetown Advocate, Thursday, October 8, 1970
