Message Abstract Forwards school reports which he was notified had not been rec'd and requests a settlement of their rental account.
Message Body I herewith forward the reports mentioned as not having been rec'd by you and as being necessary to a settl'm't. of our "Rental a/c". The charge for Tobacco Stick please deduct as that school was not — contrary to my belief — opened. The following schools were not open in June because of the great falling off in the attendance: Middletown, Petersville, Denton, Clayton or McComas Institute, and the following in May & June Frederick No. 2. In the case of Jordan at Hickory the school was open only 1/3 of the month of April and as a consequence no report was made. Hoping this will prove satisfactory and that you will be kind enough to have my a/c settled, I am Sir
