Dear Bro:-

Your kind favor of Oct. 28. was duly recd answering inquiries about Geo. C. Wade's acct. I would like however to have the Acct go back so as to include all the money that you say he first paid in Feb. last when he received his money,' and embrace the items "when he altered his arrangements & withdrew some of the deposit" as his acct is based on what he first paid you, and it seems as tho' he must have forgotten about withdrawing some of his money; hence I would like to have the Acct in full from the time above mentioned. Please be kind enough to forward said Acct immediately, as I wish to be able to convince him of the truth of our Acct. before I mention the matter to him again. In advising us of our Dfts settled, please dont say "since my last advice" as we do because you can tell whether our advice was duly received, as our Dfts on you are in regular numerical order, whereas you do not settle them in any regular order & we may miss an advice & not know it; but please say 'since mine of' (such a date') we have paid you such of your Dfts. We have drawn on you as follows:-- that is Prest. Young has drawn on you as follows:
