SAN JOAQUIN, Oct. 4, 1856.
DEAR MOTHER: As / am about to make my exit
to another country, take this opportunity to write
to you few lines. Probably you may never hear
from me again; if not, hope we may meet where
we will never part.
In my prodigal career in this country have 81
ways recolected your fond sdmonitons, and if
had lived up to them, probably I would not have
been in my present condition; but my dear mother,
although my fate has been q cruel one, yet / have
no one to blame but myself Give my respects to
ali my old youthful friends Tell them to beware
of bad associations, and never to enter into any
gambling saloons, for that has been my ruin.
If my old grandmother is living, remember me
to her. With these remarks I bid you farewell
forever Your only boy, ToM.
