The book reads well does it not?

Let me tell you something I have done. There are so many sudden deaths that I feel that I ought to do what I can to provide for a possible sudden departure on my part.

I have today made out a check to Mrs Cushing & enclosed it in an envelope & told her where to find it, in case I dropped dead. In the envelope I told her to telegraph you at once, & to telephone the Bureau she had called you home. You should come at once. Mr Hodge would allow it. You have the key & pass word to the security bay & should at once get my will. I will enclose an order which you should keep. I have had all your certificates signed by me & witnessed. You should at once fill in your name (I did not do that, for in case of your death I could not then transfer them as you wish me to do) Send word to the company & have the stock transferred to your name.

I want to mail this early to you  Can tell me about the grass.

Ever affly,
