Transcription

For dear Cleota, whose engagement I announced in Juneau, and whose marriage was announced to me from Reno. In the last paragraph of my foreword you will find a complete (?) list of all commissioners' qualities. You will have to search on your own to find your husbands description! Good wishes, always, Philleo Nash
