199 Centre Street New York May 18/04 Dear Jack As promised I write to tell you that I had a letter from Father on Monday in which he states that he has recently writen to the P O authorities on the subject of the post office and awaits their reply. He, Father, asks me if I have any objection his taking the matter up with you and doing what he can, I have written him that in as much that he has the entire matter in his hands I would appreciate his and your getting together. I feel sure that the Governor has your interests at heart as well as mine and his own, consequently am sure he will do what is right to give you any benefits which is in the deal. You will therefore take the matter up with Father please and anything he says or does to forward your interests I am agreeable to. I will copy this letter and send the Copy to Father so that he will know exactly what I say on the subject and so that he and you can come together as business men and not be waiting for each other to speak first but get together and talk matters over. Mr Eskie. Green leaves here on Saturday for a hliday and will sail by the same boat as will take this. Very pleased to hear Hugh is in Belfast, I only hope he will appreciate his oppertunity and not be foolish as before. Gordon is doing nicely and seems very content. He us well and much improve. Nothing particularly astounding over here, things move along quitely. Hope all your circle are well and the little one growing bigger and stronger daily. Must get off to fill a call now so adieu for the present. With affectionate regards to all, I am Your aff Uncle Richard W Long
