To
Fred A Pauline Esq
Victoria, BC
Dear Fred
Am enclosing small cheque drawn on JH Todd + Sons for $50.00 which you may as well have, and credit my a/c accordingly.
I note by Annie’s letters your assisting your brother in law, and that you taking an active part in attending to “Victoria House”, accept my many thanks.
Ernest does not improve yet will nor diet himself, eats things that are not good for him, but I shall try hard to pull him to gether.
Expect Annie home by next “Chelohsei” and will be very glad as business is good, and sometimes don’t find time to cook etc.
Have not any further news from B Coola, but await a line from “Anderson” who is now working for McFarlane who is in charge of road work.
Could do nothing with Freddie engine yet, but will keep trying.
Regards to all
Faithfully yours
John
