Transcription
My dear Mrs. Daab:
I am glad to Inform you that I have just heard from Mr. Lee and that he acknowledges the justice of your bill. Apparently the misunderstanding has been largely my own, and it arose from the fact that Mr. Lee was almost a year late in sending me for payment bills contracted by him for board last year. I assumed that your bills and those referred to covered the same periods, and hence I was unable to explain the situation satisfactorily. My letters written to him asking for light on the subject were not answered, and it is only within a day or two that I have finally heard from him and favorably. I am only waiting now to receive the bill properly O.K.'d and on its receipt I shall send you promptly a check to cover the amount in question. I deeply regret the delay.
Very sincerely yours,
