O. H. Haviland, Esq.,
Dear Sir:-- Your favor is received.
We are serving such an expensive table that we cannot afford to board and room anyone for less than $17.50 per week, even though there may be two in a room.
We are satisfied, if you were to once try our accommodations, you would feel you were receiving your money's worth.
It is probable you can secure nice rooms and board, at the Hotel Josephine, on the Beach here, Mrs. A.H. Butler, proprieteress, at one-half the above quotations.
Yours,
E.S. Babcock.
