the building place here is fine. It is on Hudson's land and faces south. The cattle yard is north of where the house is to be. Everything is well planned, and when the building is finished it will be very nice here. The cattle sheds are now partly finished, and the house is begun.

The house will be 14 x 20 with a low room above. Mr. Sexton, a man from West Point has been here three weeks, and will stay about three weeks longer, helping. He is very good at the work they have to do.

The cattle must be herded, and when they are left alone, stray off.

When I came E. & H. were making hay
