Letter from H.B. Ferguson to Harry George discussing the shipment of a kayak and noting he wrote to a woman about cedar bark.
Der Sir:
Check for 83.00 received. On investigation I found the rate about three times first class or $27.00 per hundred on "canoes" Seattle to St. J express.
I decided to forward by first class freight instead of express and hope this method meets with your approval. The kyak is well and strongly crated.
Let me know when and how it arrives.
All the equipment including an Eskimo bird spear and throwing board is inside.
I have written to an Indian woman (wife of white man) to call on me the first time she comes in the city. She lives not far from here so I hope to see her soon and secure the information you want about cedar bark.
Sincerely,
