I learned last week that you were my former dress maker in LynnEditorial Note: Lynn, Massachusetts. Perhaps it may be someone As Written: some one else by the same name, but on the strength of an old acquaintance I called on you today in Lynn but was told by a lady, from the upper tenement that you had gone to Boston. I went to Lynn to see about collecting my rent and thought I would like to talk with you about it. If you are the one I have been informed, we have done business together and I have found you dealing honestly and you have found me always doing as I agreed

Now Mrs. Farrar, I would like you tell me what is the reason your husband treats his bargain with me as if it had never been made. I told him before I rented to him that my tenant before troubled me about collecting the rent and said to him I will fix the house up all nicely for you and lease as long as two years to you if you will say my rent shall be paid promptly when it is due.

I told him I paid twice the rent he pays me for my place in Boston and meet my rent whenever due. That I should never trouble any one if they did not trouble me too much. He promised squarely before Mr Keith that he would pay the rent on the very day it was due and I leased the house to him for two years. Now I shall not relinquish my lease, and he has not paid me once without more or less trouble to collect it. You can see it is wrong for him to do so and I shall be obliged to make it cost him something just as sure as he does not meet his agreement better than he has done. You cannot blame me for it It was due the first day of Oct. I shall not wait many days longer I regret that we could not have had it all pleasant as certainly I should have done if he would only pay his rent without troubling me so much
