Dr Sir,
Mr. Hoit informs me that you wish me to instruct you where I
wish the blocks located that I shall be entitled to take in Matagorda
I have not time to go there, and must request that you will locate
them for me— I shall be satisfied with your selection, I want
nothing but a fair chance with the rest.
