Transcribe Wuesthoff, A. Letter to Ward, Henry A. (1879-11-12)

nwh New York, Nov 12/79 Prof: H. A. Ward. Rochester, N. Y. Dear Sir:

       Your last lot of Bird's Eggs

came promptly to hand, and were all in good condition, but I am sorry to say, that you did not follow any instructions which were in my last letter to you, it I asked you not to send me the Eggs, for I did not know whether I would be able to make the payment of 19.70 which fell due on the 19th of Nov: and now I know that I can not, for my financial abilities have shrunk somewhat of late, and as i have heretofore allways kept my promises to you, I would like to ask you if you would let me pay off the whole amount (49.20) in weekly sums of $2 each, or 8 each month, if you could, it would greatly please me, for I would otherwise have to return the Eggs. Hoping to hear from you soon I remain Yours Very truly A. Wuesthoff ?3 Canal St. N. Y.
