valuable borax property. Back came an air mail special stating he was an engineer and core driller for 18 years with Pacific Borox (20 mule team) and he believed there were valuable deposits there. He believes he can interest some company to drill -- and wants a two year lease.

It all looks promising. He is the first and only one I have been able to interest. Pacific Borax ignored my letter. I'm writing an attorney in L.A. - friend of Dad's to help us with the contract. We have only a 50% interest -- for Dad gave half the mineral rights to an old miner who told him of the property. 

We were so delighted to have Ethlyne's letter and to hear of your Arizona vacation. Our winter has been cold -- but I love it.

We are all well. Mother and Ettie are talking Florida -- but they change their minds so often I can't keep up. Love to you and Ethlyne. Do hope we'll see you soon.

Affectionately,
