My Dear Bro—

The pig matter is of no consequence—only, I perceive that when one deceives people as often as I have done, there comes a time when he is not believed when he does tell the truth.

Livy wants this $25 sent for your & Mollie’s Xmas, because she wouldn’t know what to select, & this seems the best & simplest way.

Everything’s going just about as usual—all hands well & send love.

Affly

Sam
