Foreign affairs Pensions Coinage, Weights, and Measures HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES WASHINGTON Arundel Offices 217-219 St. Paul Street By Appointment June 23, 1916, Mr. Б. K. Purdum, 17 Harford Avenue, Hamilton, Md. My dear Mr. Purdum: I herewith send you check drawn to J. G. Harrison & Sons, but in delivering same I wish you would say to Harrison Brothers that I reserve the right to deduct from the balance due for any goods which are not up to the re¬ quirements and for any which may have died before the pay¬ ment of the balance. Bring this matter carefully to their attention. Perhaps it would be better for you to send tiaem this latter attached to the check.
