Letters for many Reasons. I think you do
right to agree to go to provo his property
is there and you may be glad to be there instead
of being near Salt Lake for the next few
years I do not think that Mr Cardell had
any occasion to be visiting you. I am in
fair good health at present I feel some
akes about me occasionally but then I think
I am pretty Well I got stiff in my hands
I think lying still so much has an
affect upon me I wrote to Ovando a

can keep a home & have food & raiment we
