Recd of Elder W. Woodruff. Four Hundred Dollars (Draft for 300$ in Livingston &Co. & cash sent by M. Andrews $100-) to be endorsed in Note [Sanbren] & Center for I. F. C -
Bro. W. - Above I send you rept. for 400$, 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 Herner 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 cursed to[ illegible] virtue.
