DEAR WATSON-
I have pleasure in handing you herewith Certificate Number 2794 for One Hundred (100) Shares of stock of Parke, Davis & Company, made out in your name. The shares are of $25.00 each, par value. Your 100 shares, I succeeded in getting at Fifty ($50.00) Dollars per share, owing to an agreement made a long time ago with Mr. Henry Russel. I am glad that it was possible to secure these for you at so favorable a pride. To-day the market seems to be completely cleaned up, and would-be buyers are bidding as high as 5 8 - 1/2.

I have been trying to get 20 shares for Anna, but have found it impossible. I hoped Henry Russell would let me have it, but he will not part with any more of his holdings.
 
I am holding on to Anna's money, thinking that I may yet be able to get some Parke, Davis & Company for her.

With love to all,
Yours ever, 
Charles
