Dear John

We had three rainy days but gave two shows a day. to fair business cleared in Binghamton and here. and big after noons turn aways at night. Arlingtons have ordered a big new top and 2500 more seats cant stand the turn aways— I got a 100

Hear your Indians went home. ours are happy and great workers the whole outfit first class. Havent a dead one in the Bunch parades out on time— Johnny has all the say— You know what that means—

Write me. Am a little nerveous to night got to many people in. they may get restless.

Regards to all

Governor
