Please let me know by telegraph any important orders you
may obtain for us. Of course I stand ready to
meet the expense of such telegrams. Please collect through
Mr. Peet.

We are getting out stone, digging a well, and doing other
things preparatory to building, but have not begun to build
yet. Do not expect to begin on a house for perhaps
a month yet.

We are very thankful to you for your help in this
matter thus far.

Yours respectfully,

John A. Ainslie.
