Yes, this contract sounds right.

The salary named by Pond for treasurer was small. Maybe you & he h better decide on a sum & put it in the contract, along with a proviso that it must not be enlarged without my concurrence.

In Cable’s case, of course “expenses” merely means his food, lodging & transportation; & so it may be as well to use those words instead of “all” expenses. If he should become unmanageable & go to thrashing people, I should not want to have to pay his daily police court expenses. And it will be just like him to do that.

The substitute for Pond, ought to be somebody who can be changed, up for another, upon complaint from Cable or me. No complaint is likely to be made, but a body can’t tell

You needn’t use the language of my penciled notes in margin of contract, but merely the idea.

Glad to hear well of Annie & the boy.
