Dear Sir
Yours of the 13this to hand, am Sorry You had the trouble to copy the agreement, what I wanted was a copy of the paper I left with you in pencil, extracts taken from the Ledger showing the alterations made therein; which I should like to have at your earliest convenience.
I think upon reflection that our best course will be to put him Bankruptcy My
council here Mr. Bullett will add a postscript to my

Very Truly Yours
P Brady
Please direct your letters to 228 Walnut Street.
Dear Sir
I suggested to Mr. Brady that perhaps you would proceed
in Bankruptcy. This is however for you. If you think the the object he has
is to remove his property from the reach of his creditors I should think you
could do so. I only make the suggestion for your consideration. Yrs truly
John C Bullitt
