Twentieth of this month I dont think
they will be there before the 1st January

I have taken a good deal of pains with good weather
to post myself about the winters
in the Wasatch and east to Cheyenne
and I believe the clauses are 9 out
of then that the UP will not be
at the mouth of [wiber?] before with
Spring. But it has seen as
if our track lagged else. It
would have been strong faith in
our being first to the month if
wether, I do think there is ground
for hope. But if Charley would
stay out to the front and on the
line and see to pushing forward material
would not the thing go faster

Tomorrow I start again for
the Prommintory I want to see
the men on the important Points

Yours truly

Leland Stanford
