March 20th Mr Keyes did not return last night as expected. So I have not so much to do. Fear it may detail me longer than I want to stay here, if he does not get home pretty soon. I am quite anxious to hear from you and the children. Hope I will get a letter from you today. Have been looking over coal accounts. It is being really a profitable business since Sept. no cost. Before that it was bad enough. Balance Sheet Sept 1st to Dec 31 '62 shows balance profits $796,37. Considerable of this goes to permanent improvements, additions to capital stock. And a good deal of it is unsettled accounts, Three or four thousand balance due from R.R. Co. which you know is alway a month or two behind in payment. Two or three thousand also in accounts against other parties.
