Albany, Tuesday,
Dear Gus,
I find it will not
be possible to obtain the stock
or bonds here, as advantgeously
as they can be had in
Wall St. If you will write

buy N. Y. Central Stock, or
Convertible Bonds, to the amount
of $500, they will inform you
when they have done so. It
will be time enough then
to endorse your drafts and
remit them, – when they send
you the certificates of the Stock,
or the Bond.
Since last week both Stock
and Bonds have gone up 5
per cent. I think in the
course of three months theye
Stock will be nearly if not
quite, at par.
Affectionately yours
Frederick W. Seward
Lieut. A. H. Seward
