Friday morning.
Well. I hear old Bertie is dead! Wonder if the world is any better off for his having lived? Old Prettinger(?) was a much better force than McCormick - irregular that two such prominent publishers should pass out almost at ones. It would be interesting to hear their shades discussing things now, wouldn't it! Hope you didn't have to throw out many of the oranges in this last basket, I packed these while he was picking and took only the choicest, Garrett(?) has had 3 or 4 jobs since he has been there. Just this morning took a new one, from the me that he began Monday. Mrs. Reufts(?) told me yesterday that he recieved(?) from Toby Renfro.
