Duhamel, Jan. "a, 1900.
Dear Sir and Friend-We had a
lucky trip, made good connections and
got to Wetaskiwin Monday afternoon;
stayed there all night, bought pony
and saddle for the boy and hired
three-seated rig for the balance OF us,
and got home to dinner next day;
caught the boys cleaning up and get
ting ready to come after us. Wednes-
day the snow was all gone and we had
bare ground and bright sunshine for
month, and it has been pleasant
weather ever since. The ground Is
frozen about two feet and about six
inches of snow-just enough for good
sleighing. We had one cold spell in
December The thermometer went
down to 80 below zero, but we did not
suffer with the cold at all. We have
worked every day all winter, are all
we'll and feeling we'll; have built a log
house 1Sx1S, two log stables 16x1S. and
are now busy on well. We have 10
cows, three other cattle and six head
of horses. The boys send their best
respects to Mr. Huchison, and say they
will talk to him enough to pay for not
writing when he gets up here; will
write you again next spring and tell
you all about the winter. We all
unite in sending YOU and family our
best wishes and respects and hope this
will find YOU all we'll.
Yours very respectfully,
