She said that Jim was in Texas just now, but spoke as tho' he had been staying there [illegible]ing.Im inclosing Mr Wilson's bill, one that I understood Wanda had paid, but it seems she didnt. Can you please attend to it? And04332can I have some money too?All goes well here. Mr F.'s tunnel is in about forty feet now, and already they are getting more water.Write when you can.
