I am going to send you with this a few facts & thoughts that I gathered concerning 20 Hill Hollow wh I want to publish if you think you can med them & make them into a lawful article fit for outsiders Plant gold is fading from Cal' faster than did her [illegible]aser gold, & I wanted to save the memory of that wh is laid upon Twenty Hills. Also I will now send some thoughts that happened to get for poor presented twice damned Coyote. If you think any body will believe them, have them published. Last mail I sent you some manuscript about bears & storms wh you will believe if no one else will.
