We are going to move our chickens today I am going to pack some of my stuff today.

Tom is going to start for Saco tomorrow We have been fencing our place have it about all done wire costs like the dickens and it takes such a lot to fence 320 acre.

We dug our well went down 12 feet and it is half full now. of water

There is trees by our house there isn't any here on Toms place.

We have a milk cow we have 6 little calves so far it keeps one riding most of the time for the cattle There is 65 head without the calves.

The horses are gone now Tom rode [illegible] day looking for them one is going to have a colt and would like to know where they are they have to find the calves & colts and brand them before someone else does.
