Mr. Crapo:
Dear Sir,
Mr. Chadwick
expects to call on you next Mon-
day. I should be glad to receive
by him the papers sent you a fort-
night since; & to know whether you
think it of consequence that any
more words be had with Mr. Stet-
son: that is, by way of prohibiting any & all interference of his in
the case. For if he has not a legal
claim, we intend that he shall have
nothing to do with it; & I have
no wish to bandy words with him.

Very respectfully
Allen Gannett
