Office of the Circuit Superintendent.
5TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT,
Fayetteville, Ark. May 2d 1870

Mr Wm M Colby

Since writing you I have come across the Specifications of "Camden House" which I was confident I had returned to you.
I have had an interview with the Carpenters who think because of an impossibility to obtain dry lumber that they can scarcely promise to complete the house by July 1st. I will at once [[strikethrough]] enter into [[/strikethrough]] have the mechanics prepare specifications & bill entering into temporary agreements, hoping that you will soon visit us for the purpose of closing up the Contract and getting the work under headway.
I am very truly &c
E E Henderson
