Default I screwed up

Thomas,

I made a mistake on your letter. Larry Frey sent me a PM asking if the town was Plainville Ct not Plainsville Ct as I had it in your letter. I went and checked the order book and I guess it's Plainville since Larry never heard of Plainsville. Anyway, I got to looking at the name of the guy ordering the gun and I got to thinking it may not be Raymond.

Each order book has an index at the front where each entity ordering a gun is listed alphabetically. I didn't find the name under the R's. You have to understand the stylistic handwriting used in those days and the fact that they used a broad tipped fountain pen. I looked under the S's and there it was. Also, I found three different style of capitol S's so there were 3 different people entering data. I'm pretty sure the correct name is E.L. Seymour of Plainville, Ct.

I'm sending you a corrected letter. Everything else is accurate,


I'm apologizing right now for my current and future screw up's, I'm sure there will be more in the future.

Chuck
