Letter from H.B. Ferguson to Harry George discussing prices.Vol 1 P. 143G
Harry L. George:
The box of ivory was received the7th. Your letter because of incorrect address not until today.
Please note the number you are using is the Savoy hotel.
Out of the lot of twenty five pieces billed to you as a lot at twenty dollars you have retained the four best articles and presume to pay at the ratio of eighty cents apiece. I am surprised that a man of any business standing should attempt to pull off such an unfair deal especially as one article alone bore a four dollar sticker.
You will find inclosed my check for $3.20.
You will please return the four articles at once they are not for sale to you at any price - or stand convicted of a breach of trust.
Sincerely,
Subject
