Dear Brother John:
We have finally decided that I can take the trip to California, and so if nothing happens I will leave here June 30- and reach San. Fran. July 6. Via the Burlington or C.B. & G Excursion train. Quite a number with whom I am acquainted, will go from here on that train and so the trip will be greatly enjoyed_

would you place it? Would it gain interest or would you like to use it?
Willis sees chances for good safe inveestment here at good interest but we want to hear from you and so please answer just as soon as this is received.

I had two teeth extracted today and am tired.
With love,
Sister Mary.
