Cayuga, Ils. April 26th 1859. Dr. John A. Kennicott, Grove Nursery, Cook Co. Ils My dear Sir, I am so much pleased with the splendid set of trees you sent me that I must add a good dose of gratitude to their cost. Please receive 21. postage stamps, as the balance you say is still owe. I intended to write for more trees, but hear the cars are stopped again, & it may be too late to set them out this spring. I hope to procure some in the fall & bury them till nature's next annual resurrection. Very Respectfully B. J. Bettelheim
