anyhow, and in that case, we would have had
nothing to live on.
Now, however, we get something and can
try our best in some other quarter. As
know the whole position perfectly well I give.
You in your own interest the following advice.
Neither in New Orleans nor in Savannah, nor
here, has anybody the slightest idea of my
operations and I have managed it so that
none of the vessels named should sail before
June /. You have consequently time enough
until their arrival to put yourself in safety
against eventualities which are sure to arrive.
Please write Gottschalk to liauidate at
once, to sell everything and to dismiss the
clerks and to remit, you the remaining small
balance. can not we'll do it, as it might
arouse suspicious, and the affair might be dis
covered too soon.
You might give out to the New Orleans peo-
pie as the reason, that was sick and would
not return. Boshardt goes to Europe; told
him We would hardly continue at Savannah.
He leaves his wife in Savannah and will re-
turn there to arrange everything for US.
There is nothing to be done. Your Cotton
Exchange ticket you had better sell at once,
and let Mr. Williams pay the premiums on
your life policy with the profits. In Liver
pool you must know yourself what to do.

will be pretty severe, but it will pass, and you
say simply you got no money to pay. Finally,
it is true, you have to suspend, but that you
would have had to do anyhow, with the only
difference that we would have been entirely

chance to become either directly or indirectly
interested in some business, even II not cot

by new ones.
My case is much harder, and it will be the
best for me to take myself into the country
for some time. You have always known me
to be fair, and having been always treated by
you as such. 1 have not the slightest idea,
although could do so with perfect ease, to
take advantage of you. have fixed the
amount at elO, 600 as your share. You may
depend upon this, that considering all the
circumstances treat you very fairly, and
do not doubt for moment that you will be
satisfied with it. All pending transactions
you will settle, of course. If anytl deg 10 to

some profits on adventures or other things,
shall lay no claim to them, but leave them all
to you. Here in America nobody loses by Us,
consequently shall look on quietly for the
time; that is to say, rather from the country.
It is, to be sure, very hard to have come to
this, but nothing could help us any more, and
if any one does anything it is always better to
60 wholly than by halves. It is surely better
this way than if we had been forced to it
sooner; true, we might have been able to 60
on until the end of the season, but it had to
come to an end anyhow. The above men,

strictly in accordance with our contract,
should like to feel easy on the subject and to
prevent any possible difficulties
As soon as the guarantee in question comes
to hand (by mail, not through third persons),
I shall send you the $4,000, which have with
me. Next week shall go little aside, but
shall be here by the 9th or 10th July to re-

any difficulties, shall be very sorry, but
shall go to some watering-p place to restore my
shattered health, which, of course, must have
suffered under the constant excitement. My
physician recommends also q sea voyage,
but do not know yet where, as I have no
great liking to go to Europe just at this mo-
ment.
