Letter John Burgess Oct 17th Page 2

... in ditches for water pipe to be laid but as it is men come to california for their health and get stranded and are glad to work at any thing they can get. The Preacher as just got a call which will pay him 900 a year Cal is one of the most God forsaken places you would wish to see in the summer time every thing as to be watered the land is just as bare and brown as it is with you in March but after the first rain the grass springs up every where since the heavy rain storm we had the grass growing fine. I have not written to any one since I came here so do not know anything I am here living by myself so I would like you to tell me all the news do not let Neil? have any thing out of the shop and do not sell one pair of lasts to any one will tell you later what to do with them or let any one have the shop.
