Please allow uia apace in your papfr for a abort letter fr?i? a Lancaster bay 1 am liviag at Wills Point, a aica town on tke Texas Pacific U. R. I This is a thriving and business town; with a good acho >1 and churches of several denominations The. people are as "lever and sociablw heic aa they can be. There are a lot of people here from Lancaster count v, and it makes roe feel like I am at home when 1 meet with them. The lattd loeks to nae like it is a rich as it can he. Crops were short here last year, from what 1 can find out^-abbuf like crops were in Lancaster, but the people seem te be in a better condition thua they are there. Of course they have to buy the most ?f their feed stuff and it is about as high hero as it. ia thara Rut nmO /?f th* farmer* seem te hare tho money to buy it with. The most of the people use cistern water here. I here keen a few wells but the water is pot good to drink. They hare.tanks for their cattle. It is very dry here now; hasn't rained to amount to any thing since last may. But the farmers are preparing their land for anolher crop. Wages are geod on the farm?from ' twelve to tifteen drillers per month. Tney don' ask a. man to work fer less than V. \ t. one cellar per day. This seems to be a healthy country, from the look* of the people. They look steu* an 1 hardy. I think it is a geod country for a peer man to make a living in; it tt better land and a man can get more fer hit work, and buy as much with a dollar here as in Lancaster Land can he bought * * on ffotod let* ns and at a manna hie 1 I ? price, aeoerdmg te improvements. Horses and ma lag are cheap. Tney deu't have an fine stock here as they do hack there; if they d> 1 haven't seen them. Cows are wopth more here than there, 1 lean milch cew*; beef catMe are khout the tame here as there. 1 wilt close for this time, hop* ng this will hebf interest to many ?f my good fripods in Lanjaater.
