Office Central Pacific Railroad,

Corner Front and California Streets.

Enclosed find my check on the Bank of California payable to your order for the sum of ($125,000.00) one hundred and twenty five thousand dollars.

Charley writes that he needs that amount. I raised to day $60,000.00 at 1 percent of the House of Davidson & Co. I am much pleased with this as it may lead to further negotiations. I have tried them before but could never get any encouragement.

Davidson I believe so no longer in the Company here. This house is agent for the Rostchchilds. I have had a very satisfactory talk with them and shall drop in and see them again

Yours truly

Leland Stanford
