That has a very pleasant sound, my boy. Go you ahead & do as you have proposed to do. We will make the said assignments. Old Bowers has been haunting Dan Slote, (121 Wm. st.,) every day, lately. I told Dan will never see him, & to tell him to go to you for the talk which he desired to have [MTPO]. NoteH.C. Bowers. See June 11, 1877 and Feb. 24, 1880 for more on what Bowers was up to. When it came to Fuller, a variety of investments were usually involved.
