Lear Doctor; 



I founa this flwDrtttftg that the letter I wrote 

 the day after receiving the gun you so kindly gave me was 

 not put in the mail as I directed. I greatly feat that ycu 

 thought me remiss. I have had the gun cleaned ana found that 

 the trifling surface rust Itft hardly a trace; it is a fine 

 looking specimen. I an exceedingly grateful for your kindr.es 

 ana incidentally remark that I am not used to it. 



Cordially,
