Dear Richard -

I shipped Watkins this P. M. 22 hhds. (???) tobacco weighing 19755 lbs net I will have more hhds. besides scrap and odds and ends which I could not get in. Will try to get all of that fixed as soon as I get all the leaves &c. tied up. I think they will find the order all right. I will have the tob. in Oxford and Raleigh numbered as you suggest. Am glad to know little May is improving so much hope she will get well and strong by the fall our little baby has been right sick during this hot weather, and is right puny now. She has two teeth through and I think she will cut more soon. Will write again soon

Yours &c.

T. D. Wright
