Hartford, April 15, 1857.
Mr. Brown.
Dear Sir, — I
received yours in relation to the funds which you expected from the Kansas
Committee, and I would say that I have not taken any further measures with the
spears than to ascertain where I can get the handles and ferules, etc. If you
do not find it convenient to raise the funds for a thousand, I will make you
five hundred at the same rate. I should think the committee were not treating
you very fairly by not honoring your drafts after the promise they had made
you. I shall wait further orders from you before I proceed further.
Truly yours,
Charles Blair
