tice, occasioned by sale of $25,000 of your subscription to Col .

My excuse for bringing this matter to your notice at this

time is that I understand some of your New York friends desire to

buy part of your subscription, and, if it is your pleasure to ac-

commodate t hem , the matter might possibl y be arranged in time for

the purchasers to meet this call. I enc10se herewith copy of the

paper passed in the sale to Col . Lamborn - it mi ght be of use to

you at this time.

I have just seen Mr. Seymour, who said it woul d answer,

if the amount due from you in pa; ment of this call was de p osited

in the American Exchange Na tional Bank, //

~nst ., for credit of Merchants National Bank of St. #
