will write at length from
St Cloud if not sooner –

If I go I’ll go with
the best kind of an outfit,
I am forced to hire or buy
a horse and am promised the
hire of a splendid Canadian
(used to the road to Pembina)
by Mr Kittson – a fine man
who is very kind to me –
Bairds friend Cavalier of
Pembina is here and going up
with his train – He offers me
every facility only he cannot
carry my trunk, - so if I go
Ill take Kittsons horse & cart –
I am all right with the owners
of the train dont you see.

Cavalier is a “brick” – They only
travel 15 or 20 miles daily –

Write to me at St Pauls. But
dont forward valuable letters unless
I write that I’m going to Bois de
Sioux only – that is the settlement
