I will notify you if he pays it, and will place to your credit at Bank as directed. I will be in Oxford Monday and will go from there to Person and will not be back until latter part of week. No news of interest except great excitement over rail roads. Parrish has decided to rebuild his Ware House and every body seems jubilant over the idea. I understand he expects to have it ready for 1st sale by 20" of Oct. Had letter from Nannie few days ago stating that little May had improved a great deal which I am very proud to know. Said Sister was to get going again. I would like to go to Buffalo for a month if had any one to stay with Bettie during my absence, and to take her to her fathers would have house exposed to rogues &c. Dr. Chas Bradsher says it will do me more good than all the medicines
