I tell her I didn't reproach you and never thought of such a thing. And  
I said I would break open my letter and say so.  
Mrs. Clemens says I must tell you not to send any money for a month or

along his little yearly contribution. I dropped him a line about another  
matter a week ago--asked him to subscribe for the Daily News for me--you  
see I wanted to remind him in a covert way that it was pay-up time--but  
doubtless I directed the letter to you or some one else, for I don't  
hear from him and don't get any Daily News either.

To Fred J. Hall, in New York:  
Aug. 6, '93.  
DEAR MR. HALL,--I am very sorry--it was thoughtless in me. Let the  
reports go. Send me once a month two items, and two only:  
Cash liabilities--(so much) Cash assets--(so much)
