San Francisco, Cal.

San Francisco, Jan. 14th,1902.
Dear Sister:-
I am in receipt of your communication of Jan. 6th and note what you say of your right to invest money belonging to the University as you seem best. I do not think anyone takes an opposite view to this, at least I do not. I also note what you say regarding the sale of the Market Street property.

I do not consider this road sold until all those interested have received the money.

He is now laying some of the tiling in the center of the Church where it is sufficiently strong enough for this work. Mr.Gilleti informed me last week when I met him on the street, that he would not put in the floor until it was strong enough and he was fully satisfies that it would hold the tiling, and he so informed Mr.Day. Mr. Day was in my office this morning and informed me that he will go to Palo Alto to-morrow Wednesday and see how they were getting along. I am in receipt of your registered letter of Jan.8th regarding a certain amount of money to be forwarded monthly to Mr.A.P.Stanford. First draft will go forward today. I am
