I ran the risk of being mistaken, for that P.O. Department are always changing & distorting their rules.

If Osgood doesn’t pay that $62 $825 instantly, my advice notion is that you had better bring suit—& do it before he gets out of the country. Better tell him I have so instructed you.
I enclose check for the $6,719.45.
