Title

Tea & Coffee for Breakfast & Supper, Etc.

Description

Holt acknowledges responsibility for boarding certain of the workmen who will come to New London and has made appropriate arrangements with some citizens of the town. He has learned that they will expect to have tea and coffee for breakfast and supper and this will make a capital difference in the board. Since he wants to be as economical as possible, he requests directions with Hodgdon as to how to proceed and especially how to defray expenses related to repairing arms.
