McQuesten as outlined in your letter to me of this date be carried out by these parties. Mrs. McQuesten further proposes that in the event of the Judgment and Madoc claim not being settled within one year from this date that Mr. S.P. Sawyer shall accept payment of these two claims with interest to date at a rate of 50% on the $. plus interest on the 50% for the year. I am instructed by Mr. S.P. Sawyer to accept Mrs. McQuesten's proposal as above stated. Mr. Sawyer will also consent to withdraw his executions now in the hands of the sheriff of Wentworth as soon as the proposed arrangement between Mr. McQuesten and Mrs. McQuesten is agreed to and carried out and the stock assigned as proposed. I send below statement showing amounts due Mr. Sawyer and referred to in above proposal as payable to him and to be secured by assignment of the stock.
