I have not yet got my check for the sale
         of the Christmas trees in New York City, but I hope
         to make a clear net profit of about $300.00 this
         year-- not bad, as I sold only 1,0O0 trees and
         when I get in full production I will be in a
         position to sell nearly 10,000 each year.
 
              Many thanks for the map.
 
              MY best wishes to you for the New Year.
 
                                 As ever yours,
 
         Henry T. Hackett, Esq.,
         226 Union Street,
         Poughkeepssie,
         New York.
