I wish you would send the amount, $250.00 by wire to the Wells Fargo Company in Callup and have them send it to me by mail addressing it to me care of J.L. Hubbel, Canado, Arizona. I think you had better wire the amount to them so the I will not have to stay here after my work is complete. I could send it to Mr. Hubbell later but this is my first deal with him and I would rather square up before leaving.

No not think that I have run out of money. I have about $260.00 of that five hundred that you gave me when I started and Mr. Hyde told me that he would add to the amount that he had already advanced whenever it was needed, as per the arrangement that was agreed upon when we had our talk at the New York Athletic Club. This being one of the extras that are looked for on every trip I feel that we cannot afford to let it eat its way into the amount needed for the regular summers work.
