Dear Doctor I was glad to see your hanurity[?] again as it told me you are again coming out again. In answer to [illegible] and yours I would say I have been waiting in hopes of being able to send you word of a swell[?] deposit in your favor, but fate has at present ordered otherwise. I should be very pleased to comply with your request, and hope to do so ere long, as "my time" is nearly her[?] again. The past-winter has been another tight pull[?]. Could not make enough to pay running expenses. I have however great hopes of a tolerable spring, and if so shall come out right side up "with cars"[?] I am sorry you did not send my account when you commenced to first as I see we have a

discrepancy in our Act. I had not allowed enough by quite considerable for your act. Bill Rec Apr 26th I had not allowed, I had none but by recollections believe it must have been a bundle of willows if so all right, Bill rec. Apr 24th. $19.40. I had allowed 12, remember my salesman lost that Bill and gave me as he said items received which I filled as per others so this it appears couled not have been enough. No doubt your act. is correct still it woud have been pleasant to have tallied exactlyJust so soon as I can possibly do it I will square old act. and hope soon to be fullly established selling again when you may likely get another visit from Yours Very Respecf Edgar Sanders I send you new Catalogue will be sure not send bills
