Matamoros is across the river. The sale still needs a Cameron answer.

The port of entry is the setting. It is not the account name.

The Handbook of Texas places Brownsville across the Rio Grande from Matamoros, a port of entry, and later a shrimp shipper. Cameron County is the county. The drawer and the boat are different papers.

If this is your week in Brownsville

Dawn on this bank of the Rio Grande is a different stack of paper from noon in the kitchen. Matamoros, once San Juan de los Esteros in the account, sits on the far bank. Fort Texas was the temporary post. Fort Brown is the name that followed. Neither post is a payer in your books. A catch you sold is shrimp. A boat you only fueled belongs to someone else unless that fuel was your product and you write fuel beside it. Produce that left through this port is its own stack. A plate from the kitchen is not shrimp and not produce. Cameron County lists the building's fixtures on a later day. A slip naming a town up the highway leaves this stack. Drawer cash does not fix a wrong place. An empty place line will be assumed to be the kitchen, so fill it. Highway 77 and highway 83 end in this city. A Missouri Pacific bill is not shrimp. A Southern Pacific bill is not a plate. A captain fee that only passed through your hands stays out of revenue. Mifflin Kenedy, Richard King, and Charles Stillman hauled supplies on this river in the account. Kenedy is not a plate. Stillman is not shrimp. King is not a railroad bill. Trawl, skiff, icehouse, pilings, pallet, crate, tally sheet, and wharf lane are the working nouns. The tally sheet is the catch. The crate is produce. A skiff you only fueled is not your tally. An icehouse bill you paid is a cost. Pilings are the setting, not a customer. Shrimpers out of Louisiana later worked this port beside boats from the Texas coast, the account says. A catch sold here is still not a plate. Fort Brown gets no column. Esteros gets no column. Highway 77 gets no column. Highway 83 gets no column. Shrimp is not a plate. A plate stays a plate on this bank today. A galley header is not a hatch tally. A lighterman fee you paid is not a bollard. A fender invoice is a cost. Netmender wages are wages. Keep those labels apart.
