NARA 758

I immediately advised Mr. C, of the fact, and told him that at a final settlement with Messrs L. & P. I would see that the Tripletts paid their account to Mr Connor, Lindsey, & Patty, informed me, this morning, the Cash is ready, when payment ordered. 

It remains with you to state whether the Freedpersons loose payment for the week they worked, or, the contrary - I think, they should loose it, because, they first broke faith, here, & then, at Macon, it will make them remember - in future, I compelled them to perfect Contract here, which they have, at once, we are advised on the matter, the cash will be forwarded, either $14.00, or $10.00 as ordered.

Very Respectfully, &c
Jno Williams,
Agent, &c
