Messrs Dodge, Sweeney & Co.,
San Francisco, Calif.,

Gentlemen:-
I have just wired you as follows:
"Ship no more butter until further notice".
My reason for wiring you as above is that I find your price for butter is higher than the figures at which we can buy choice butter from other parties, at present.

Yours truly,
E. S. Babcock
Manager
