tax will not be less than 18$ this year on account of the big school house tax. I bought yesterday 13 head yearlings stears at 20$ each they will average about 650# or more that makes me 26 of that age, one week ago yesterday was a terrible cold day 20 degrees below zero, since it has moderated. Well they are doing all they can to work up the Murder Case, public opinion is generally setling down on the two Andersons. We got a letter yesterday from Louis he says he is Broke up, and 1700$ in debt. Albert is driving team Ed is new Mexico, I see by my Omaha paper a New Land office is established at Niobrari west of you, we are all in usual health, you better not mention to any one about the sale of your place here we do not know who to trust now. - from your Father &c S G Finney
