Southern Pacific Company
Sunset Golden & Shasta Routes

Office of Div. Supt. Wadsworth, June 24th. 1893.

Mr H.C. Nash,

Palo Alto, Cala.

My dear Sir:-

Kindly tender our heartfelt sympathy to dear Mrs Stanford
in the hour of her grief. The Governor was looking so cheerful the
last time I saw him I cannot realize we saw his dear face then for
the last time. I have known him for twenty three years and it has
been my good fortune and pleasure during that time to contribute
to his travelling safely over this division. None knew him but to
love and respect him. There is some consolation in knowing that there was a dear boy waiting anxiously for him. What a meeting
that must have been.

Owing to a severe attack of Neuraliga I could not be present
in person at the funeral today, but my thoughts were with you all.

Yours truly,
Jane Stanford
