Sam constructed for them a regular city of pretty bunga- lows. You never saw anything like it I am sure. This looks like d deserted city now, with an oc- casional show of life. I thought how nice it would be if we could but pick up a few hundred of those unused, pretty bungalows and drop lem down in Brinkley.
 In the big plaza, Jacksonville gives the thousands of tourists and citizens a splendid band concert each afternoon. Facing on this beautiful flower garden is the finest, prettiest and most wonderful department store l have ever seen and it is worth while to see it if you ever go there.
 But I am making this ramb- ling letter too long and will have to draw it to a close. It will be my last letter while in Florida for we will be back in Brinkley on the job possibly by the time or before it is in type.
 The vacation has been a most delightful one, and helpful in every way. Havn't had my mind on the work since 1 left. Told 'em not to even write me any thing about business and not to wire except in the case of death or fire and I am truly thankful that no such messages have reached us. With best wishes Yours to serve,
