Dear Col.
Enclosed you will find the receipts, from Mother, for $375.# and $67.# - I return you your check & blank receipt for $55.15 - as, according to the order of Court, I, as agent, pay my Grandmother her quarterly annuity from the Howard St. rent, & return each party their share of the nett rentals. In this case it is "as broad as it is long - but I think it better, one accounts, check books, &c., should show the proper and exact transactions. - If nothing prevents, as I shall be over at your office, to see you about Fire Insurance, &c. Monday afternoon next, about half past four. Till then, I remain
Yours sincerely,
J. Smith Rice
