Transcription:
Daggett, Cal. May 14 - '08 Dear Papa - I had a good letter from you yesterday and am so glad all is going well at home.
I suppose I'll hear from Wanda today. Here a clipping from yesterday's San Bernardino paper on Hetch Hetchy - Mr Manson showed
it to me last evening. It surprised me a good deal for I supposed that the main danger was over. I am feeling well and happy,
and am well supplied with flowers, for since I have your sweet brier and a big bunch of beautiful red carnations too my shanty
is just full of sweetness. I was by the track yesterday when No. 4 passed one of the train men gave me this big bunch of beautiful
carnations said With the compliments of the Santa Fe - I think that was nice . How is Stickeen coming these days? Always
yours lovingly Helen 04187
