Dear  Cousin:  I received your letter in due time, the date not now recollected and the subject of five dollars our old grandfather got from us.  It is nothing but rite that you should have your money that your grandfather got.But it cannot be lawfully obtained without your evidence.   The Law.  Bassie and I would be glad to see you up in this county and hope you and your lady will pay us a visit shortly and I think all things will be satisfactorily arranged.

                                            I am your friend and cousin,

                                                        W. H. Madearis
