page 5 was offered a partnership by a former fellow student in Appanoose Co. Iowa. Although the town is small now the offer is based not on the present amount of business but upon the future growth of the town and the consequent increase of business, it becoming the focus of three new Rail Roads. I have written for more definite information, and think I can determine what I will do about May next. It takes so long to exchange ideas and get information from the states that it is very disadvantageous in a business point of view, as we have already found it unpleasant socially. In your next letter I expect to hear from Spring and Conneautville about the people as well as affairs there, and whether you determin upon anything in regard to Uncle James' matters. I was wishing somebody would want to buy our land in Beaver it would help along some It is certainly a continual loss to keep it. I think of nothing more at present and will close, if anything should occur to me to write before carrying the letter to the office I will add a postscrip My regards to all enquirers, and to Mrs. and Mr. Keyes whether they inquire or not.
