Mr.. J. A. Monk,

Danbury, Texas. Nov.15, 1912
Mr.. J. A. Monk,
Whitefish, Mont.
Dear Sir: have been over our
land in Danbury Colony and dare
say that it is much better than l ex-
pected to find it, The land is a rich
black loan with a very sligk: mix
ture of sand. The land Is almost lev
el with gentle slope towards the
north which gives good chance for
drainage II such should ever be nee
essary.
l am we'll pleased with my tract
and have accepted it, and believe
that all the tracts owned by White
fish people are just as good as mine
and cannot see any difference in any
OF them away from Austin Bayou.
The tracts along the Bayou owned
by Messrs Monk. Yates, Grantier and
Mabry are a little broken, close and
along the shore of Austin Bayou, but
it is only a narrow strip, and would
not amount to more U put it strong)
than ,one-fourth of an acre on all the
four tracts combined.
Mr.. w. o. Hutchinson has choice
tract and it is perhaps little more
valuable on account of having a we'll
graded road ON the north end, but
the soil is the same as on all the
rest of the lots.
/ am going to have my land plow-
ed to get it in shape for spring
planting, and also build a house and
settle on my farm.
The Danbury Colony is growing
fast. A number of purchasers are
coming in every day and most Of
them are here to stay to develop
their land. New houses are being
built every day and everybody seems
to be in good spirit.
This is about all l can tell you
this time. hoping for a reply soon,
remain,
Respectfully Yours

The wet weather and snow has
been very destructive to rabbits and
birds the past few weeks. If the
present rate of slaughter were kept
up long the small game would be
exterminated. Some one has esti-
mated that not less than 1000 rab-
bits have been killed in the river
swamp within the past six week.

Benson. January i. Satu: ay,

Snow fell in large fakes. covrr:2g
the earth to a depth Of se"er&l
inches. The young folk could not
resist the temptation OF having fdn
when they assembled and engaged
in fierce battles with snow balls fly
ing fast. The engagement lasted till
benumbed fingers and red noses
commanded a quick retreat into
warmer quarters. The wind blowing
from a northerly direction drove the
snow underneath the shingles of the
houses and as it is now melting, it
causes the overhead ceiling to bulge
and plastering to crack. As yet we
have heard of no great loss of stock
or poultry from the effects of the
! freeze.
