Home May 25, 1908. Dear Wanda: I'm delighted to hear through Helen Tom that you enjoying the desert growing strong Stay
as long as you can or until quite well, for body troubles neglected now may bring on life-long invalidism Get merry like
Helen revel carefree in hearty revival of genuine girl-giggle. All goes well as far as I can see on your confounded ranches
except Tom who seems solemny at times goes to bed about sundown. Tell Helen I sent her 100 in two Wells Fargo money orders.
She should not cash them until she needs the money for if lost they can be renewed Affectionately your father John Muir
