It is by Harriet Beecher Stowe.

It is commencing to rain now so I suppose it will not snow as I hoped it would.

Papa did not go up to the ranch this week and is consequently anxious for next Friday to come.

Hoping to see you again before many weeks I remain your true friend.

I have had the land surveyed platted & recorded as "Muir's Addition to J. O. Young's last Lincoln” and …
