sure you can't object to this, as it is very low indeed - I saw Fuller and Dr. some time ago & thought you might give us more, even more than this, but I will be contented this year at this - You see you put some more work on me & of course I expect to do the best I can for you. I was going to tell you this when you were here last, but forgot to do so at the time. Dr. told me you collected the rents of Guthery (???). Was it for the month of January? Write me soon and state fully what you wish done &c. &c.

Very Truly

Robt. I Rogers
