It is imposible to get teams here the engagements I made has all fallen through it is out of the question to hall they say. I cant say any more as my hands are so cold that I can scearsly hold my pen I send enclosed an order on Walter C White for one hundred and twenty dollars and 29c which he will pay you in Brazoria times are dull owing to cold weather
