101.500 Kilian to Allen & Heitman, [CHI, Serbin Collection] 17 May 1868


May 17, 1868
Serbin, Texas

Messieurs Allen & Heitmann
Houston, Texas

Gentlemen,

By this means we are going to authorize the net amount of $109.38 in gold, which we acknowledge is the value of a bale of cotton for sale to you, for my brother-in-law Andreas Kappler in Serbin to E. S. Wood in Houston against a receipt of E. S. Wood, which you hitherto graciously shall send unhesitatingly to register.

Whereby you are best recommended for your inclination to kindness and goodwill.

Your faithful Esquire,
Johann Killian
