There should be our load of Powder
sent to Humbodlt wells that i
think would answer until it can
be [ascertained?] better how much
is under along the line go that
work which Strobridge will not
have to do. I think it was
understood between before I left
that Powder should be sent out
But this is not material as
that work has not suffered for
the want of it. But strobridge
must keep will potted as to
condition of Rock to culvert work so
that it shall cause no delay.

There is now about 90 miles
of the Mormon contract can
plited except the culverts

The weather here is very
fine would be considered such
in California. The U.P are
making the most of it. It is
greatly against us.

Yours truely
