"Dick" comes out. She will tell you the story. He does not deserve what I wrote you to give him, but I tried to get him away without influencing the Ashinios. As for Lou-cling-rals, it is a decision and get away without me seeing him. Give him nothing unless he asks. As I hear this wheel was my agreement with him. If you get it give him 12 1/2 bacon, or large tea, small fryer, his hatelot and his saw knife, rolling oil, watch Mens, he will trial tobacco candy, and everything else. All the toys not tried. But good hope that all stand with me in this matter. I am convinced he has come no more harm than good. Once he left all Ashinios have been fine and well go to hunt. Get Lou-cling-rals rifle and cartridge and I would... Hear everything is going all right. Have frequent consultations with Els and Paul-- if you want to come over here she will tell you all about it and what bringing. Regards, Walt sincerely yours Wae.
