Tom,
I got this month’s check, finally. The way they keep changing things, I never have any idea what’s coming, only that it’ll be less. Always less. You know this check is nearly half what I got this month last year? Brings me to the reason for my letter, and I don’t want to be coarse but I would like to remind you who’s side I came down on when things got ugly with your dad back in Baltimore, and seeing how you been doing so well out there in New Mexico, well.
Think you can see your way to sending a little bit of money over to ??????
Your kind (and loyal) Uncle Root
