Echo, UT
February 18, 1869
Some time since I received a telegram from you asking if I would be home on the 17th, which I answered in the affirmative. Ever since the telegram was received I have looked forward thinking you would come out and see me. For six days previous I was on horseback, riding forty and sixty miles per day to get business in shape to spend a few days quietly with you at Echo; judge my disappointment in not seeing you. On my last trip I went to the west end of the road as we expect to build it. (Monument Point.) I have just learned that one of the heavy cuts west of the mouth of Weber Canon, has caved in in immense quantities. I must go there in the morning and devise some plan to rectify it.
