S. M. Marshall, Esq.,
Cajon, Calif.

Dear Sir:-
Send about 200 lbs., choice raisins, in package, into the hotel, and oblige,

Yours truly,

W. H. Tinker, Esq.,
San Diego, Calif.,

Dear Sir:-
About what would you charge for running a level from Del Zura Pass up to Barrett's place, on the Cottonwood River, to the point where the damsite is located, so the actual difference of elevation can be known?

Yours truly,
E. S. Babcock.

December 15
E. P. Fowler, Esq.,
National City, Calif.,

My dear Sir:
I desire to thank you for the plate of lemons and bunch of oranges sent over by you. Have placed them in the newsstand, where they are greatly admired by the guests, particularly the lemons. I never have seen more beautiful oranges.

Have you any oranges of the kind sent over, for sale, and at what price, if so?

Yours truly,
E. S. Babcock.
