Enclosed find money order for 20 dollars to apply on my acct. Max is about the same to-day. They say he is very sick but not in any danger as yet.

Have seen nothing of the orders you said you mailed to me. They must be lost some place. I expect our mutual friend Jacquin here in a day or so and will send you some more money then. Don’t send cases enough for the next shipment as I have about 25 here so you can send 25 less then order calls for and I will make out here.

Yours truly,

John

But old Syracuse is away ahead of it when it comes to being up to snuff. I took a little trip over into Kentucky yesterday and took some money away from the natives “their easy” Well! I must close and open up under the head of Turkey in the “Straw” or rather on the platter.

Yours truly

And wishing you a Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year
