Dec. 23. This morning got mad at [[underlined in red]]Thurlow[[/underlined in red]] when he asked I should not ask him to [[strikeout]]att[[[/strikeout]] supervise shipment of samples. He had the impudence to tell that the [[underlined in red]]"four year of hard work"!!!!begin to tell!!![[/underlined in red]] What an impudence. He never came here before noon and even now I cannot get him except late and then does not do anything but sit down and smoke cigarettes and give the bad example to the other boys by doing nothing. The man has actually had a cinch for more than five years. I got very mad and will not consider him any longer. Maybe the others will teach him a dance.
