What in perdition was ever done about a paper concerning the funds standing in the name of C L Webster & Co? It was thorough nonsense to do otherwise with them thatn I originally told you to do. Don’t I tell you I can die, & make a complication—nothingⒶemendation to show who the money belongs to? Just transfer the money (all except $2,000 or $3,000,) to my name & let this lame unbusinesslike romance cease. And send me some of the bank checks.

Better send Huck (& unbound copies), to the magazines now—& ask Gilder if he can’t review it in next Century.
