Dr. Bro.

Hire a close car & forward the remainder of your grain to this City by rail immediately Send it in Bulk see that the car does not leak If it is not very close in places first caulk it so that there will be no xxxxx waste Boards can be put across the door openings so that we think it will ride O.K. Send it to J.C. Kingsberry Salt Lake City care of D.O. Calder & Co. Ogden. I think one car will carry it all should there be a few 100 pounds over the ton 20 tons, Calder says report only the 20 tons

Please see that there will be no mistake nor waste. Dont delay as we shall need it all Calder will pay freight to Ogden

Respy &c
