Messrs Armour & Co.,
Chicago, Ill/,

Gentlemen:-
Your favor of the 21st inst., is received.
The meat arrived here on the 21st of March, was delivered in good order, and weighed out in full. We were very much pleased with the quality.
As the season is getting a little late, and as our guests are diminishing in number we will not send in more orders until next Fall. As Mr Armour, of Kansas City, was here, this being his third Winter at our hotel, we gave him an order to be shipped from Kansas City, which is expected daily. Next year we will be in the market for a regular supply.

Yours truly,
E. S. Babcock Jr.
