Since I learn from your kind letter of the 21st of this month that you cannot agree to a price of [currency mark] 18 per hundred for your cremore [cream of tartar], please send me at once 400 pounds of the usual quality, at the established price of [currency mark] 18.50 per hundred, on the usual terms.
