To the committee in council on Building and Repairs for Fort Worth public schools:

Gentlemen:

The itemized bill attached will show the amount of work aced the price agreed upon- The work is done well I think.

As I have incurred some debts contingent upon this work and promised prompt settlement, you will oblige me very much by passing upon this bill at once.
