He'd fair there a mighty good go around, and I'm sure would keep. And [underlined] he'd be pleased as punch to hear you write and asked him. I dubbed him my "Senator". "Senator to Major Elliott" he signed himself, proud as a pea [hen struck out] cock. I forgot [?] [?] don't have no tales to spread. And he sure did a cob of getting down at the bottom of things while he was there.
