Primary tabs
I have sold all but 8 Tubs of the last shipment of Sugar and these remaining will
hang I guess for they are rather brown But
will come out on them all whole if possible How much money if any shall I pay to
Edward send me order to pay the amount You may desire so I may know what to do.
I have been waiting to hear from you and expected to get a letter to day but did
not. I think I've all the sugar that I can handle this season as it is late most
all supplied
Tell Fred Carpenter I cant do any thing with the Butter
Tubs this season as It was to late when I got home and nearly all the merchants
were supplied The friends are all well Ed & wife have been here to day

live but a fue days Please write on receipt of this as I wait to hear from you
