SAMUEL BLATCHFORD. CLARENCE A. SEWARD.
Auburn April 5. 1852.
My dear Uncle,
The Reverend J. M. Austin
me to write and to say to you for him that he
desires to borrow $500 for his paper. We made
a loan to that amount sometime ago, under
the impression that the loan would be perma-
nent if he wished it, but the person from whom
he borrowed the money now desires to use it.
The security which he proposes is,
a mortgage on his lot on William Street, or
Eleven shares Auburn Cato Plank Road Stock, or
Note endorsed by Charles Bemis
There is a mortgage of $900. on the house lot.
It is worth Mr Austin says $2500. The stock
is worth $50 per share. Annual dividend 12 per cent.
Will you please answer immediately
Ever gratefully
Your Nephew
Clarence.
The Honorable
William H. Seward.
