Dear Sir
Your check for 41.93 to hand
The balance due me Nov. 10 - 19 was 46.67 less 5%
I always allow for 33-1/3 % when when I send goods - and even then I cut list price
where I can.
Please look up the 2.41 the other bill of Dec ?? I am in no hurry for.

Dear Sir
Yours of the 15th I am to hand. You are correct about exchanging baskets -
a good many years ago I traded with a party 2 ??? arrow points and I got
robbed, so I from then on say cash for what I get and if the other fellow
wanted anything I have let him do the same . The 3 main baskets you
ordered I have not on hand and to tell you the truth I
never have seen one but if ever I do I will remember you.
I have a very old Alaska basket collected by D. ????? when he
was in Alaska years ago - it is about 12 x 16 been folded up, but by
soaking it in water you could straighten it out - priced 6.75 list.
With respect
How would you like a few of my return envelope or catalogs
to give to our perspective buyers I am willing to pay for the trade
(over)
if I sell the parties you give them to
