I will go on with my letter as I have returned to Carcaraña and have received your letter written on the 19th July. I have one from Ella DeBell also, so you see that I am not entirely forgotten by the people of North America.
I will write to N. York Life Ins. Co. direct so that you need have no further bother with the matter. You did the right thing by sending them the $26.84 in payment of premium due Aug. 12th, for under the circumstance it would have been impossible to have received a reply from me in time. Just what they will do now about the $56.72 dividend I cannot say, but no doubt they will do what is right. As to other money matters you do what you think is best. You undoubtedly have the other remittance which I mailed to you on the 5th of August, so that if you obtained the money on both all right you will have had $1,000 less what the bank may have charged you as exchange. With this you need not suffer until I can send you another $400 , which will be in about 5 weeks. You would receive it about Oct. 10th to 15th if the mails run about ordinarily. With that and what may be left of the other you can pay for coal and live until about Jan. 1898 when I can have another
