00901 920 Valencia St. S. F. Tuesday P.M. Apr. 1880 Dear Louie? , I reached the city about four o clock. Visited the
immortals Brown Swett, heard Prof Prostor s sun? lecture. Slept last night at Swetts, came out here this forenoon for my letters.
Am going down town now to telegraph Dr Dwin illegible , visit the shears. I hope to get off tomorrow for Monterez. Write me
at Swetts 1419 Taylor St. I am a little afraid there may be difficulty in getting Dwin illegible at the right hour through
the puzzling tangle of trains ferry all of which seem to be run on the hour illegible principles Had we not better engage
two or three R illegible so as to make more reasonably sure of one. With love to father Mother thee affectionately illegible
