Must repeat what I said about the weather above. Rain stopped at about 2 o’clock but did not clear up. Slow business. Received a letter from Helene & Franz and an answer from Brown Brothers, Nursery. They decline to know anything about my business transactions with Mr. Hiersche. Well, Patt Powers, thyr agent can prove my statement. Expected one of the boys here to day, didn’t come. Had Bacon & eggs for diner. Wish for nice weather to morrow. U.S. landed supplys and food for the insurgents in Cienfuegos, Cuba. It will be a long war.
