Martinez, May . 22, 1897. My dear Mary Here is Your Dunbar cash It all came to me for distribution. You said last summer
that you would pay back what I advanced long ago when this money came This I think will be a good plan not for me to keep
- for I dont want it, but simply to give it to you again as you might chance to need it. Anyhow come out visit us this summer
with the Christian Endeavorers. The fares will be low, you will thus have one trip in your hard self denying life. Let this
be the first use you make of your means. With best wishes, hoping times will now be easier. I am ever your loving brother
