Letter from Ilus Fabyan Carter, 10 June 1854
Portland
Recd of Elder W. Woodruff. Four
Hundred Dollars (Draft for 300$ in Livingston
&Co. & cash sent by M. Andrews $100) to be
endorsed in Note
Sanborn & Carter
for I. F. C.
Bro. W.-Above I sent you rept. for
400$, the draft for 300$ is recd and thinking
the balance sent by brother Andrews will be
forthcoming I include that in the amount.
I do not hear a [illegible] or word from Huver
although I have written both of them particularly
I have no confidence in him at all, he done
very wrong in not forwarding the money at once
that you sent by him and for his conduct in
that, and his great delay and neglect of all his
promises since I should advise you to secure it
if you possibly can, principle and interest. I dont
see that he has any further claims upon your
liberality and your duty to yourself and friends
require attending to. I think in this case that
patience has ceased to be a virtue.
