Dear Brother George:
I take this time to tell you that so far no one has sent me any account of Edd’s. All I know is this. I have waited to hear from Mr. Jameson Edds wife’s administrator of Edd estate. I wrote to him and sent him a stamp for a reply. This was in July and he answered me in November. He wanted his money at once. and now how can I settle this if I don’t know how Edd left his affairs. I wrote to you to look up the law in PA concerning “wills”. Edd first made Mary’s will and left me out and then he got counsel and found he had to will me something to make her will legal. Now I think I must know how he willed his Harvy hill property. If the law is like York State law and he has left you and I out his claim here would be illegal. Wont you find out about this. Now brother George all I know about Edd’s charges is this Jenks saw nine hundred dollars charged against Mary. But in June I saw Mr Miller and he told me Edd had crossed of some. You see I will have to refuse to pay false trumped up accounts. And I will get a lawyer to face Mr. Jameson. I have tried to do this business by writing but I wil have to go and consult a good lawyer.
