 ''"l 'sr mel many iricnds aud renew.
 d many old acquaintanccs while ih csow cny this time and I've enjoy l s~sy~rR very much: had much fun and som. experiences that were not fun. Ny friend Jnmison here grillcd mr nnurh today; but I've had a good time nuyerihcless.
 ''l remember well my first visit in Prescott I was going east io Kansas sity and was riding on scalpcr x trcka which bore the name Solomon s,evi' The conductors name was Tom 'arrIgan and when he camr to collect m far he said, 'is your name Solo isson Levil' I said. 'Ycs. but was in. Tormsd that the ticket was not mine. nor did the description tally with my own appearance. 1 was pat oh the srain at Prescott. stayed here an | iEad good time.
 --Whcn returned tu Prescott again i, WIS in 1900, just following the fire here. Be it said to the credit of Pres e-ott, that no town has made better progress and that there is no bett r Sows morally or otherwise than this city. lt k getting better cacn year. You as citizens have abolished gam. hiing and the yDther evils which differ. s-uciate the west from the east. Pres cut, is not isolated as some people rb,nk. When new fad is started in New York city or a new musical com position wins favor there, il is not two upreks later until the same has reached ,tasur city, and life's worth living here N well as elsewhere.
 ~'I don't believe that the Prescott gttnzens realize what they have here in climate; at least they have not pushed Ii and boomed it properly. You have s delightful winter climate and soon anTc to he on another trans continental slse. have compared Prescott to Col
 .A. Gf., hot aE nal culture, and think that your city has Colorado Springs skinned to n frazzlc.
 '''1 eonld say n worl about Prescott aS to . health resort, but won't. The r1ght class of health seekers help io Inild up town. Your delightful eli. tnsts should not be allowed to go tG sas,e. but should he utilized as m as s-ci. You should make q pleasure re- sort here. Colorado has no cinch on . he business You hay, the contrasting weather which everyone likes, the ssnappy cool days and the balmy warm ,spes Personally anticipate that Prescott in the near future will devel S.p into a good sized, thoroughly up-to slfse progressive city, so certain am s,f its future that am planning to in sg-si something in Prescott myself.'
