My dear Miss Clement, - Please accept congratulations upon your entrance into the legal profession- I noted with pleasure your success in the recent Supreme Court examination - and the honors accorded you

in your home town when you were sworn in. We are indeed glad to have you swell the number of women Lawyers in North Carolina - and I wish you great success.

Your middle name is one one well known to me - and I have been wondering if

perchance you might be related to the Wayne and Green County Exums, who are family connections of mine.

With every good wish for your success.

Sincerely Yours, (Mrs) Mattie Ham McRae, (Atty-at-Law)

303 Monroe Road Charlotte, NC - Feb. 22 - 1916.
