Dear Raymond:

No news excepting that, I have not been able to get any money out of Mc Cann. Abdelmasen. or Sullivan.: Abdelmaseh. will owe $50.00 more on April 12th. 

This Stock Market is still some guess: today closings were Am. Tel. $108.-Drug $ 42.75 First National. $42.7/8-U.S. Ind. Alc $22.75 Am. Com. Alc. $9.00-Cons. Gas of NY. $52.50. I don't think so much of the non paying Alcohal stocks; but they may work faster than the others. I have included Cons. Gas of N.Y. on account of conversation with Dr. M. J. Shaughnessy . with whom I was in conversation today; every time I meet him he talks about stock(I was getting a script.) he stated he thought it would be a good idea for a holder of Telephone stock, to exchange for Cons. Gas. How about that one?

The Old Colony, insurance, at present, is $25,000. on 80% clause, which will pay at that proportion, on partial damage, but would pay the full amount, if a total loss. As tax assessment is now reduced to $26,000: am asking questions. On present ratio of insurance, for partial loss would be even: on complete loss we would be $5000. plus. This on Tax valuation:

Understand Henry. will have to go back to N.Y. on Monday next, in order to be in Court, Tuesday morning, but: understand the Mrs. received a summons today, therefore; (his chief worry will be with). 

Best regards to all, 
Your brother, 
Bill
