Dear Mary

Another day is over night is drawing nigh, their is a great deal to ocupy my time but when you do not like it one does not feel free and easy, you remember how I did strive to get in my melons seed early and get them in, in good shape and longing wait to see them come up and watch them grow. well I do have that earnest feeling in anything since I was knocked out in the West, except you my darling and My iner man, so the work is tiresome would like to see some work of my own bringing in a comfortable livelyhood as you mite say, if you were here, I would try to enjoy this country and help you to enjoy it without having seven or eight more Ha Ha my dear I hope people are not making things and buisness affairs hard for you, you have it bad enough if you did not have any affairs at all, hope that your life will be easy smooth and peaceful if not very rich and that you will live to see your sweet darlings grow up to be men and women and that you and I will love each other richer and nobler as the time goes on,

This has been a terrable trying day for me first thing this morning was up on the carpet on two false charges which I proved to be false Captain dismissed them it was this big Police we have for sergent it took him down some but you see it does me no good for I have no friends, but they see Im no fool to deal with and am not bothered very much one big fellow tried to knock me around but I showed him I was no weakling so these small things seem to be what these fellows respect for this afternoon everybody was very steady But Im not very comfortable on top of this mornings jar. I have had all old teeth out they are hurting very bad just now but when I get some new ones in I will be a lot better, he did not say they were cattle teeth but I noticed it took him along time to get two of them out of the jaw very big hard chunks, it will be a few days before I get the teeth hope they do not forget and let me go on with these front ones. I hope to be with you again and try to do better for you, I wish you would write telling me if you are feeling disapointed with your maried life or not I am not like most men I know I am babeish, well well try and live to be stronger and more manly and loving to you my great big little darling you have done mountains of lovelyness for me when all others were again’st me hope some day to be more deserving of my Mary
