 which yon carried out what you undertook for him." 



Mr. C. S. writes, October 8th, 1883 : 



Ontario. " I am glad to state that the reports I get from my son are 



first-rate. He likes the farmer and his wife, etc. He seems to 

 have made a trouble of nothing, and has buckled to work with a 

 will." 



R. P. S. writes, October 23, 1883 : 



Ontario, ee j desire especially on my own part to express my entire 



satisfaction with all the negotiations that have passed between 

 yourselves and myself. I have from first to last been treated with 

 candour, courtesy and consideration, greater even than I could 

 have expected, and I feel confident that your Company would 

 have carried out to its entirety the contract (which I freely 

 entered into after making many inquiries and being perfectly 

 satisfied with the results), had not my son's sudden attack of 

 illness unfortunately necessitated his return to England for a

" I do not know what we phould have done but for the Company 

 and its agents abroad when my son's illness occurred, and I beg to 

 tender you my best thanks for the kind interest you have taken in 

 arranging for his medical treatment, and for obtaining information 

 so speedily, and for providing in advance the necessary funds for 

 his care and for his passage back to England." 



J. E. A. writes from Ontario, October 28th, 1883 : 



OntariOi " Canada seems to me very like the old country, and my ideas 



of having to rough it have been by no means realised. I have not 

 felt the least bit homesick, and have not the slightest wish to 

 return home. 



" I have found your agents kindness itself, and your arrange- 

 ments most complete."

Nebraska, « ^^ I have purchased the farm on which I have been placed, 

 and intend starting for myself next spring, I shall consequently 

 require a good many things from England, and should be much 



obliged if yoa would inform Mrs. H as to the best way of 



sending things out here, and if you would also give her any other 

 instructions as to packing, etc. I am much pleased with the 

 country, and have been purchasing stock, and intend to go in 

 solely for cattle and hogs, as there is an almost imbounded range 



up here. Mr. P is, I think, now content, though somewhat 



^.msettled at first. I think, from all accounts, that this seems the 

 best part of Central Nebraska, and all land in this county is bought
