July 6, 1902, was a Sunday. The ad is all requirements: manners, health, education, nationality, age, build, and means, and it says nothing about the writer. It ran in the same column as X-123 and E-124, a gentleman and a lady who each asked the other for a full description. For where people in Denver post personal ads now, see our guide to personal ads in Denver.
Public domain in the United States: published before 1931.
Transcribed from the page image and checked against the original; spelling and punctuation are as printed, and words broken across lines are rejoined. Capital letters are also as printed: papers set the first line of each ad in capitals, so the capitals stop wherever that line ended, sometimes in the middle of a word.
