In the back pages of the diary was found a letter, dated June 18, 1853, written by Albert H. Tracy, a prominent attorney and congressman from Buffalo, to Azor Taber, Albany attorney. The letter recommended W.H. Walker for a position in a law office in Albany. This connection was corroborated by an article in the Express, September 1888, which stated he studied law at Albany Law School in 1852.
