Mrs. Leland Stanford,

Palo Alto, Cal

Dear Madam:

I beg to enclose bill covering lumber required in replacing partitions in Menlo Kindergarten Building : this covers all expense thereto,

In your interest I would again call your attention to one Mrs Luke Murtha located in your house and field adjacent to Mayfield. With due consideration for her circumstances as a Widow whose husband was formerly an Employe here, I submit the following: She bought & now owns a little home off of Main Road very close to where she now lives, paid $800. for it and gets a monthly rental for it. She has had a stock lot which have been a continued nuisance to us pasturing on our field. She has money outside of the $800. paid for her home represented from reliable sources as amounting to at least $2,000.00. Under the present intentions and per your wish, we want to rent or lease all available land so that a revenue may be coming in; should this field in which this house stands

be rented the party would certainly need the house for his use in caring for his stock etc. There is also a family living in a small house of yours on South East corner of same field who should either pay for such privilege or vacate. It has been told me that this party is fairly well off in this world's good. That issue however, is immaterial if these houses are at all fit to live in they are certainly worth exacting some consideration for. Let some income be derived from every available source and in the aggregate it counts up in the end. Besides, an unlimited possession of a piece of property in the absence of a consideration through rental or Lease, gives ultimate possession thereof and in some instances requires ejectment attended by annoyance and trouble.

Yours Very Respectfully,

L. C. Ferguson

Clerk
