It. is well to bear in mind that some questions which depended | 
upon you for decision had to await your return from one or. two 
long absences, when you were beyond the reach of telegraph and the 
mail. 
As you very properly desire to close accounts with me, the 
work being practically completed, I send herewith a final state- 
ment. In ¢his account you will see I have credited you with 
what geems to bé the proper sum in view of the misadventures of 
my professional relations with you. If this does not seem to 
you entirely just please tear up the bill and consider the account 
settled; the amount involved is far too small to stand in the way 
of the pleasant relations which TI always hope to maintain with 
you and yours. 
Very Truly Yours, 
Mi an’ Heng,
