mistake in computing expiration of time and I could not complete my part of the work until the 3rd.

	As I have written Mr. Stewart I drew check for $200 for purchase of land -- 80 acres at $2.50/100 which is outside regular expenses, and I asked him to make deposit to cover the same.

	I shall start on my way eastward tomorrow morning. Mrs. Douglass who is visiting her mother in Montana will join me at my old home in Medford, Minnesota.



Yours as ever,

Earl Douglass

Medford, Minn.
