at the wild and novel business of sheep shearing, & had very funny, lawless, exciting times. There was about thirty men in the first gang I worked in, composed of Spanish, Indian, Irish, English, Scottish, & mixed mongrel unanal- yzable elements of Californian society "too numerous to mention" All of this pied regiment in driving the sheep into the shearing pens would hoot and yell like demons the sheep, wild as antelopes, would become ungovernable, & a sort of wholesale sheep hunt would commence in which deeds of romantic daring might be witnessed in the heaving, surging masses of …

Farm July 10 1868

Dear John

Words cannot express my feelings when I received you letter of June 10th - We were all thouroughly alarmed for your safety - as so many letters were sent to San Francisco, and found no owner. David and Daniel both wrote to San Francisco but their letters were returned to them, after lying there thirty days, Sarah sent two and I sent two - how happy I am to know that you are well and comfortable, and have enjoyed life so much in the golden state after all your travels. I hope you will …

Madison May 25.

Dear John -

I feel your presence and sympathy in all the gladness of the opening season, but I also feel very keenly the loss of you in my life. I meant to keep such even step with you through all the journey which I prayed might be a blessed one. and before I knew I lost every track and trace of you. This is strange because I wrote exactly as you directed both to Cedar Keys and to New Orleans. I am not a little heavy hearted about you, what have the tropic weeds …

I immediately complied, and be- fore my letter could have rea- ched him received a second asking me to direct to New Orleans where he was intending to go. To the latter place I sent a long letter filled with everything which …
