ing to furn'ish the Bee! at any point where required, not further up the country than Post No. 1. for $2.50 a hundred, or at Tor- reys' Trading House for $2.00. I believe, however, that my proposition will reach you too late, as Mr. Kattenhorn 'informed me the other day, that he had obtained the contract and was ready to fill it. Should the contract not have been let out please write me by next mail or sooner if convenient and let me know if you can give the above prices in cash, at what time, and the number of Beefes wanted.

Yours truly S. W. KELLOGG Free S. W. Kellogg R. W.
