Dear Sir :
Inclosed I send Mrs. Marples letter to her husband with her
fathers and Brothers and his permission also to act on as you think
proper.
James Tumlinson Desires me to let you know that he is so unwell
that he is not able to attend about his Land and he wants you to
try to let him have the 8th League above Jacksons on the Colorado
and the half or whole of the Tract he lives on as you think proper
For such he will thank you to attend to. and says he will go to see
you as soon as he is able to ride.—
Yours
