when he got here as when he heard that Mr. Parks was to get such a large commission he was afraid he might be a crook however when Dad. had showed him some of the recemt letters he was reassured. It gave Dad a little uneasiness though to think that Mr. parks would tell a totla stranger so mych but I supose he is so full of the subject that he can't think of anythingn ewlse. Dad. waa dnwn at the bank the other day and found that Mr. parks ahhhad fput £100 to his credit just as a gift he paid back "if 7 when". though now he says there is no if about it. Fine, warm.
