Madam T. Coromina
Madam, I take my pen to answer yours from the 31 March, arrived in time and aware of it I see that you are telling me that you have not received the 500 (¿pesetas?) through D. Antonio Tenster, as I gave it to his wife when I left Ibiza I do not know if the delay of this amount is because of him not receiving the money of the sale in time and I did not know that he sold the articles in one month term he told me in my face for that we do not know of the mentioned sale and I thought that by that time that it would be given to you and otherwise have the goodness to write by post immediately and I will organize myself, with no other with affects. ?.??. S.S. M?
