all round I cannot send you I am willing to quit at once and sir I should have no hard feelings should you discharge me if I could not suit you. I should do the same. You know what you had to pay or what it would be worth to you. If your business comes in contact with many Germans I can get along with them I can talk German I have some business at ^ or near Springfield in February which would tak on about three days. I would want it understood that for that space of time I would want to go there I leave the subject with you. If you think I can suit you. Please write immediately
