at our last Christmas gatherings many were the kind wishes and loving thoughts [waylaid?] to the valley of Yosemite I am glad you are not apt to wander or feel lost on the mountains.

I propose to take life easy "and then to begin again my trade in the "journal" I have not yet written upon the Yosemite. I dread to do it, lest I should fail; and then there was so much of my family to write that I grew tired of it, and wound off when I reached San Francisco. One of these days, however, my audacious pen will proceed to desecrate the glories of you valley. I have had for some months thousand's "Walden" and his "Excursions", as also [Ja?] Ingdon's] last poems piled up together on my book case …

Could not you and "No. [3]" who is I believe Miss Blanche come by sometime with your father on his way from Sacramento or from San Francisco, which is perhaps the most convenient route?

Dear brother David G

I am truly much obliged to you for the pains you have taken concerning that strip of Fountain Lake land If you think that the cattle & hogs can be kept off by any ordinary care & fencing considering the character of the neighborhood I wish that you would offer Ennis from 2 1/2 to 10 dollars per acre as you can agree, but if you think that the stock cannot be fenced out I do not care to have the land at all It is a splendid natural garden

Dear darling Dr.

With extreme pleasure I now address a few lines to you, And heartily congratulate you on the successful termination of your college course, and am happy to hear of your bright prospect for the future.

I would gladly climb to the top our highest rocks to find out whether you are on this or the other side of the rocky mtns Can it be that you are indeed in California. If this be a fact it has some rare unbelievable properties that make it hard to comprehend But with faith like a grain of mustard seed I will go on to believe that you are verily in Yuba.
