The initials match but they are listed as going out of business in 1836, not sure how that would find its way on an 1890s flask.?

i'm thinking bout it, as they look so purty all lined up there. now i've got 14 more days before they shut off my electricity. makes me want to but them just to spite the fact we have to pay for stuff like that. lol.
I'll get back to you if i can fanagle a few more bills. but keep on bidding cause this really isn't a good month for me. I had to pay the big one real estate taxes! but one month, i am gonna buy some here. []
Cause, I'm a supporter! : )

If you have to decide between bills and bottles I would rather you pay your bills.
I can send you some bottles for free if there are any particular type you are interested in.

At this point they can all come get me. The bill collectors that is.
You know I'm not well and they think it's nice they give you a financial hardship form to fillout well your doctor has to and that
give you 14 days protection from your electricity being shut off.

And today driving back from Boston from the doctors I hears this country pays 1billion dollars to pay for people in other countries to not be hungry. I think Charity begins at home.

And if you really mean it that you would send me even 1 bottle, you have touched my heart. and tears are streaming down my face.
God Bless.
