Dear Sir - In reply to your communication of the 11th I would say the very lowest rent I can take for my house is $200 a month - That sum - or sum a hundred & fifty laid out in a form repairs would put the house in splendid condition - since in these days of exorbitant rents the (illegible) above you will find to be immeasurably reasonable. Yours respectfuly Z Buchanan Aug 13th/66
