Martinez Nov. 21 / 05 Dear Helen Wanda, I got your letter today. Sorry the weather is rainy again. You must be very careful
about drying out dusting your beds every day especially when the tent cover is damp. Everybody here seems as usual. Maggie
is considerably better than when I left. I went to the Magees yesterday and put the Utah St property in their hands. They
said they would examine value it sell only when the right time offer came. The money is all paid on Helen's Block deed delivered,
deed made out for the Old Mill ready for Helens signature. Duane will probably close trade for John place in a day or two.
Have not seen Charley yet. Paid the taxes today for whole year. Kunie? is happy. Am writing at my old desk the home though
desolate seems most like home of all. Good night darlines, Heaven bless you Your loving father
