it down all the way into Tucson
of this trip I made mention in a letter
addressed to Pres Taylor now in the
hands of Bro L. J. Nuttall to which you
may refer; we then spoke of the Buena
Vista Ranche in that valley—6 leagues long
by 3 wide—the length was up and down
the stream about 12 miles, over the line
in Sonora, and 6 miles in the U.S. -
a desirable place, and just enough
above and removed from a line of
R.R. going to Guaymas to be convenient
although I am satisfied a road will
yet run the length of that valley between
Tucson and Magdalena, that Ranche
we was told by one of the heirs could
then be got for about ^$20,000, or less
than 50^ct pr Acre, and therer was
plnty of useful timber on it the entire
length; we have also heard of a pretty
valley between Fronteras & Arispie about
15 miles long and a mile wide well watered
