If we're cousins at all, Jake Schiff an Prisidint | Hadley an I belong to an infeeryor | branch iv tn family an ought to be | treated as such. Besides knowin' how relations act to'rd each other, if I've got to be any kind iv relation let if be | as distant as possible. I'm sorry they're | goin' to fire Aleck. He's a good man | who's done something fir tn wurruld. I'm sorry fr him if they fire him, fr they'll have to take him home. If thev want to punish him they ought to make him perpetchool Gov'nor iv Jamaica. "
