Akron, Ohio, Feb. 9, 1854.
Dear Son John, — I write
by direction of Mr. Perkins to ask you to come out immediately to assist him,
instead of Mr. Newton, in closing up my accounts. He has seen the above, and it
is a thing of his own naming; so I want you, if possible, to come right away.
He has told me he intends to give me one share, but would like to have the
stock mostly. We are on excellent terms, so far as I know. All well except my
wife, and I hope she will soon be better.
Your affectionate father,
John Brown.
