David Thompson sends this scan of an AA Housman memorandum of sale. According to the memorandum, the firm sold to brokers Ames & Miller 400 shares of a firm that I can't identify. With the "y" at the end of the name, I can guess we have the sale of railway shares. I'm just not sure which one.
Mr. Housman was J.P. Morgan's primary broker. The memorandum was likely prepared in January 1990, not 1899 as indicated by the date. By 1/3/99, the hyphen hole perforations on these stamps were not in use.
