Dr Henry
I have your letter from Buffalo
& shall shall endeavor to hold an a steady
hand.
Not a word from D.
touching the execution of the deeds.
I have this day sent J.D.
draft on Ch. Co Bank $623. 90/100 - & list of
all previous remittances - and asked
an acknowledgement.
I do not think F.

the case- although perhaps enough to
say at one time.

We will endeavor to be watchful.
