My Dear Old Friend, Samuel Corwin;-
I have no doubt butyOu Will be much surprised
on receiving this letter, but, perhaps, not more
so, or more gTatified, than ] was TO hear nom
you. The manner in which heard from YOU
and learned of your whereabouts, Is this:
happened to be looking over an Oregon paper
fron, TiiIsnoolC county The thrill OF pleasure
which experienced on reading is indescriba-
BILE. The many acts of kindness which re-
ceived at your hands long years ago had never
been forgotten, notwithstanding our cores
pondence has been broken for seventeen years
Well sam, l won't attempt 10 give you more
than the outlines of what has tTansplred Win
me since we last corresponded. So many incl
dents of the past, in which you and were con-
neeted, crowd upon my nllhu % @ tnat - l SiiiLos q @
think or write OF myself Does your nina ever
revert to the past, when we nrst mellow you
took me in as partner, When those VINO
should have been my best irlenQs thTeW on on
mellow we got showed in and had TO live on
potatoes straight for six weeks-hOw good that
grizzly meat tasted-what a diSsraceful retreat
we made from our poor innocent Jack, when
we thought we were beSeiged by grizzly
Well sam, those events of iSi2 frequently fur
nish subject matter for my thoughts, and, as
am writing to you, crowd upon my mind, but
will dismiss them for the present 10 give place
to that which will, perhaps, be OF greater inter
est to you.
pocketed eleven thousand dollars out of the
deep Claim you gave me in Maraposa, and
started for home in June, 1873. invested four
thousand dollars in real estate in this city, and
left IL in OF Alcllnes our CtDln 1lJ
property here has yielded me handsome in
come, and quadrupled in value. l went into
business in New York city, in which was very
successful-sold out two years ago, since which
time have been travelling IN European coun-
tries. You know used 10 have weak kness for
traveling-well, IL has been gratihed to my
hearts content. While In France 1 was taken
with the smallpox. The lady of the inn told
me that was fortunate TO take the disease at
that place, as there was an old smallpox doc
/ tor near by who never failed to cure, no matter
how bad the disease; and sure enough, began
| to recover within four hours after commencing
/ TO take the medicine, and in twenty-fOur hours
/ l felt quite we'll. I was much elated with
! the magical effects OF the medicine that I was
| determined, If possible, 10 obtain the formula,
| in which l succeeded, by paying handsomely
| and promising not to divulge IL in France.
/ see from oregon papers that you have the
disease among you The enclosed package
contains the formula and sufficient material
for family use. have cured all the cases that
| have come in contact with, and find 1t an in
fallible cure and preventive. When you an
| swer this will forward sufficient OF the mate
rial to make you a fortune, as 1 have ample,
and rest assured reciprocate past favors.
/ will close for the present and await anI-
iously your answer. Direct TO San Francisco,
as will remain here about two months
