Dear Brother,
I got your letter before I left Cody but thought I would wait until seen where I was going before I answered. I have been here three or four days now. I like this place better than Cody. Jim and I just come back from a walk in the big trees. We are not doing anything today as it is Labor Day. Jim got a letter from you about the same time I did and he said he had wrote twice before.

Dear Brother,

We sure seen lots of country coming here, traveled about
three thousand miles since we left Cody and was in eleven states.
I sure want that cow if you sell her but don’t know yet
just how I can pay for her. I was
talking to a man here about getting some money and he said he would let me know
how in a few days. I don’t know what
you want for her and it will take so long to get letters now I am so far away
but if I can buy her I will write to Green so you can see him.
Well I will close for this time, I got to write to Mother
yet.
As ever,
your brother Chas. Thompson
