Dear Brother and Sister Jones:

When you leave the place, do not leave the hose attached to the pump (thus I found it, when you went to Petaluma), for this can be removed and stolen very easily. Remove it, if you please, from the pump and put it under lock and key when you leave the premises alone or at night. I wish you would water the flowers in the other yard, if you can do so without too great trouble. 4LtMs, Lt 24, 1884, par. 1

Yours with respect. 4LtMs, Lt 24, 1884, par. 2
