John's letter from Shreveport, Louisiana written with the temperature at 100 degrees, has been received. In New York it is quite cool and pleasant. The fact that John does not complain, even though he has trouble and annoyance, proves that he has grit. Gallagher supposes John has noticed that everything looks good when collections are good, and looks glum when they are not. John's father and everyone else seems well. :: I-2-m A.L.S. 1p. 12mo.
