LETTER NO. FOUR
from Cammsck, alias II. b. Clark, to Eas-
ton, who was known as the colonel" reads
as follows:
ST.. LOUIS, May Z, 1ss3-DEAR COLONEL
Yours 20 forwarded from Atlanta. An
glad that you have seen that fellow. No,
don't think any questions would be asked
IL the shipments were rushed too fast. Sup.
pose he shipped 800 bal or Monday and
200 bales on Friday. That would be 500
bales per week he really shipped.
Suppose he git duplicate set OF
bills of lading for same cot
ton and gave them to his other bankers;
then duplicate sets to some third banker;
\ 700 see he would get away with LOCO bales
week; ne would have to really ship 900
I bales. Each banker would think that the
500 bales were his, If they are Ia the habit OF
inquiring, which don't think they do,
and the fact he reslly shipped 500 bales
l would establish him as q cotton shipper.
On the original shipment you could send
copies OF bills Of ladings, billing to your
agent. But on the duplicate and triplicate
sets no one would know OF them but you
and B. wrote yn yesterday. sec
nothing in the way to prevent It from being
