Miss Edith Hatzell Friend
Your letter read and contents noted asking me to make the account "as reasonable as possible."
Now, Edith, the account as you are charged on my books is very reasonable and you now have been associated enough with physicians to certainly know it.
You ought not forget that I made over one hundred trips to see you and how many nights I stayed with you. And above all that, I cured you and that now, you have almost a whole life before you and say Edith, if your nurses and your doctor had been neglectful, what then?
If there are anybody in the world who should have their bills paid in full and promptly, it is the nurse and the doctor
If, Edith, you want to pay your
3
bill at once, I will accept twenty five dollars in full for the account. I will never take less and I only make this proposition for prompt payment as I must have some money to meet some bills that will be due in a few days and are on the sick list so can not get out to look after corrections.
Let me hear from you soon and where I can next find you after leaving your present address.
Edith, how have you been getting along nursing? I wish you were here to nurse me. I know you are a good nurse and a fine young woman. I would like to see you and have a pleasant visit.
Your Friend, U.F. Carson
