Mrs Leland Sanford [sic]

Sanfrancisco

Cal.

Dear madam: Having seen in the
Youths companion where you
had given the Leland Sanford [sic]
University money & property
to the value of Thirty Million
Dollars I thought I would beg
a great favor of you. I have
five children two boys and
three girls whom I would
like to give and [sic] education
but am too poor now to
make a start hardly in that direction
