Dear Sir:
If the "Confiscated Property" is yet turned over into your charge, can we trouble you to know the exact status of a building situated on E. Main St. Nos. 15, 17 & 19 and formerly owned by W H Taylor.

Is it actually confiscated or is it held by Government in that hermaphrodite way in which it has taken other buildings? 

In other words is there the least probability that it will be given back into Mr Taylor's hands?

If you can answer the above questions without too much trouble you will confer a favor on 

Yr Obt Servants
Wm Nichols and C
17 E Main St
