Vice President, Collections

Dear Mr.Garlson,


It has come to our attention that your account with this institution remains in arrears to the sum of Sixty-Eight Dollars and Thirty-Five Cents ($68.35), which amount has been outstanding for a period exceeding ninety days.


This debt originated from your promissory note dated May 15th, 1882, for the purchase of merchandise inventory for your establishment. The agreed upon terms called for settlement within sixty days of said date.


We have extended every courtesy and patience in this matter, understanding the challenges faced by merchants in frontier communities. However, we must now insist upon immediate attention to this obligation.


We hereby request payment in full within ten (10) days of receipt of this correspondence.


Should you find yourself unable to remit the complete amount, we are prepared to discuss a suitable arrangement for installment payments, provided you contact our offices promptly.


Failure to respond to this notice will compel us to pursue collection through legal channels, which would necessitate additional costs and expenses to be borne by yourself.

We trust that you will give this matter your immediate consideration and look forward to your prompt response.


Most respectfully yours,


Horace P. Blackwell

Dearest Gartholomew,


Mabel's birthed another fine mare - makes three foals this season! The new filly has your same stubborn spirit, I'd wager.


The wheat stands tall as church steeples, but harvest feels an age away. My hands ache for work, yet here I sit watching clouds roll by. Whatever shall we do with all this restless waiting?


The preacher asks after you every Sunday. I tell him you're making honest work of yourself before our wedding day. He nods knowingly - as if he remembers being young and foolish once too.


Write soon, my dear heart. The autumn moon will be upon us before we know it.


Ever yours,
Constance

HARVEST PROSPECTS BRIGHTEN DESPITE SUMMER'S TRIALS

September Rains Provide Relief After Punishing Heat

The blessed rains of early September have come as a merciful relief to our agricultural brethren, whose crops have endured a most trying summer season. Brother Samuel Johnson of the Hurricane settlement reports that his wheat fields, which appeared near ruination from the excessive heat of August, have shown remarkable recovery following the recent moisture. The thermometer registered upwards of 98 degrees on several occasions last month, wilting even the hardiest grain stalks and threatening our potato harvest. Yet Providence has smiled upon our labors, and Brother Thomas reports his barley crop yielding near 25 bushels to the acre, while the late potato plantings in the cooler mountain valleys promise a bountiful harvest of 700,000 bushels throughout the territory. The Saints are reminded that continued vigilance in irrigation and soil preparation will be essential as we face the challenges of another growing season in this trying but beautiful land.

Silver Prospects in Pioche Drawing Young Men

From Our Town


Another company of young men started last week for the mines at Pioche, Nevada. Reports of large fortunes to be made there are drawing many away from their farms. Some of our citizens fear that the settlements will suffer from this loss of labor, as crops and irrigation demand constant care. The stories from Pioche tell of both sudden wealth and sudden ruin. The wisdom of leaving home industry for mining will be proved in due season.

Type Revival

Silvermane is a type revival project based on the typography found in the western novel The Heritage of the Desert by Zane Grey.

Published in 1910.

This was a project started during Mark's time at Type@Cooper.

After scanning, photographing, examining your reference material the question becomes, "What do I draw, and why?" Are you drawing what you believe to be the type punches themselves to be true to their original drawn form, or do you draw them for the color and flavor seen in the text on the page?

While I'm certain the metal type was sharper than it looked on the page, I wound up drawing Silvermane closer to how it appeared as ink on substrate. I wanted the color and texture to match side by side in digital contexts rather than worry about how things might be printed with it today.
