much rain there and that there has been an excess in portions of the eastern part of the country but so far it has been the driest season known here, and the hottest for the time of year. Considering the conditions of the rock we are getting along very well with the work of taking up the skeletons. The prospects are that it will move still more rapidly now. I hope that you are fully recovered from your injuries and that you are enjoying good health. Yours Truly, Earl Douglass
