his wife, giving her minute directions in regard to some business affairs and bidding her a fond 
and final farewell.

Crittenden Co. Ark., containing these words;  “Your friend, J.J. Brown will be dead when you 
receive this letter.”  Also the following.
  Mr. Michaelis, Monterey-  My government voucher is in the Monterey bank.  If I should die before 
I get my certificate, I would like to have you help my wife get it.
  Monterey bank:  Please let Mr. Michaelis have my certificate.
