HartfordⒶemendation, Conn., Oct. 12.
My Dear Smith—A barrel of the best flour we ever had in our house arrived while we were away on the summer vacation, &Ⓐemendation we are using it now. It came from St. Paul, but no bill came with it. Did you send it? Is this the ordinary price? Let me know right away, because I have got over one hundred people who want to trade with you &Ⓐemendation with nobody else. They want to give you all their custom.
Sincerely yours,
Samuel L. Clemens.Ⓐemendation
