"Hello.  I am writing you from Cornell University Library on behalf of a
person who is attempting to locate a painting by John Harrison Mills from
1864.  The painting is a rendering of Ezra Cornell's Durham Shorthorned
bull named "Hotspur."  (This oil painting won the bronze metal for "Best
Oil Painting of an Animal by an American Artist" given by the New York
Agricultural Society.)  A person we contacted during our research indicated
that your museum may know the whereabouts of this painting.  Any
information you can provide will be appreciated.

Regards,
Holly Mistlebauer"
