Mr Wm. H. Mersereau
Dear Sir
It was my intention to go to Irvington / myself and look at the stairs to see what / was the matter, but being very busy at the / time you wrote, I wrote to Mr Hunter, asking / him to send a man up there and fasten / those spirals on. That was, so as to give me / time to go a little later myself. I supposed / he had done it.
I expect to go as soon as I can get the time / from my hurried work.
Yours truly
Geo A Shipman
