obeyed, and tho I close up, as an employe I will hope to continue as a friend and I stand ready at any and all times, to do for you at this end everything in my power. I feel better for having been in the service of such a man God rest his soul, and go out in the world full of hope and almost confident that something will turn up, by which I can provide for these that God has given me.

I have hopes that Mr Perkins will employ me but dont know anything definite about it.

Hoping that you will have nothing but joy and happiness for the remainder of your life

I am as ever yours obediently and friend

bound in cloth, for such distribution as you may desire. He will have in all 240 copies. So will Senator White and each of the House delegation a smaller number. I will frank those I send you of Senator Perkins quota so that you can send through the mails as an official publication. I will also send a copy to each of the Californians mentioned in the volume, the pall bearers, engineers and others for Senator Perkins, and with his compliments. I hope you will like the portrait. The Senators who have seen it think it a fine likeness. I purposely had the features appear full for the Prince photograph made him rather full in the face and I think that the dear Governor's friends would rather see him at his best than otherwise.

Please let me know when I shall send the fifty additional copies, and I will respond promptly

Yours very sincerely

John B. McCarthy

Our little Leland Stanford is doing handsomely, and though only a little over a year old is beginning to walk about. Mrs McCarthy had some plates made of him on his birthday. I'll send you one in a few days. I hope you are well. Helena and Lizzie have returned from their trip to Europe much benefitted.

Again with my sincere regards I am yours as ever

John B. McCarthy

Jan 1, 1895

My dear Mrs Stanford.

I did not know until this morning that a photograph of our baby boy, Leland Stanford McCarthy, at one year of age, had not been sent you. I regret the oversight. Our Leland is doing remarkably well and like the memory of our dear, the original Senator Stanford, is a joy and a loving delight to us.

Please accept our heartiest wishes that 1895, will be a happy year to you and yours.

As ever your humble servant

John B. McCarthy.

I passed 1701 K st. today. The stream of messenger boys, as in the days passed, were not crowding in there. I could not help but cry right out as I passed.
