| 1 | Author: | Cabell, William D. | Add | | Title: | Letter from William D. Cabell to his brother Joseph [a machine-readable transcription] | | | Published: | 1995 | | | Description: | Your very interesting letter came safely
to hand and I expected to reply to it by last mail but was
prevented from so
doing and must now do what I have so long neglected doing. But
first to our busineſs: a letter of Mrs. Carrs arrived by the
same mail that yours did and that has all been attended to; a draft
has been for-warded to her for $75 on your aſc in payment of
your bill with her for the last half of your last seſsion
with her as boarder &c. No doubt the bill is all correct. You
are charged with wood also — but credited only by $20.
This renders it neceſsary to curtail my remittance to you and
therefore enclosed you have one draft for $75 being as much as I
could well remit you at present. I hope it may answer your
purposes for the present. The draft will paſs for money with
any accommodating merchant who has opportunities to present it. | | Similar Items: | Find |
