FALL RIVER, May 1, 1896.

MR. JAMES RANKIN:

Dear Sir--

For that setting of duck eggs I received from you April 1st, I want to thank you now for giving me sixteen eggs when I did not expect but twelve. I should have written before, but I wanted to tell you how many I hatched out. They started to hatch out two days before I looked for them, so that now, May 1st, I have twelve little beauties. I am well satisfied with my dealings with you.

I remain yours truly, Mrs. F. E. PALMER.
