Transcription:
Martinez, Feb. 14/08 Darling Helen, I gladly got your letter of the 12th telling all's well with you. I sent you a pineapple
Goldberg odds ends yesterday by freight. The cigars are for Dick therefore you will not try them.. Can't say when I will
be down - The business as yet is all incomplete though hopeful of favorable consummation. The weather is now charming but
roads are all but impassible. Mr Duane has not been able to fill orders for trees but will soon Tell Mr Vandyke this - the
almond tree at the house is in bloom. Better not part with Miss B. until you can get some other girl. Have been lonely. The
Pecheco family almost my only visitors. The quails I mean Love to you darling regards to all - John Muir
