JUDGE LEIB,

SAN JOSE,

My dear Sir:

Possibly you understood that I wanted all of the abstracts.
I desired only the abstract of the Corbett property, or rather of
the San Mateo Rancho. I had not paid much attention to the
agreement regarding the sewer, which was located on the southern
boundary of the place previously to my purchase of it, and as there
has recently been some trouble from overflow at the manhole, I
thought I had better look up the agreement &c. I am hoping every
day to be able to get to Fair Oaks, so I thought I had better
return you the Easton abstracts, as you may need them before my
return. I notice that in the new abstract, Mr. Rice still says
that he "finds no title in Mr. Ralston" to the two small pieces
that he sold to the Eastons. If Mr. Ralstons's title was as clear
as I thought the San Mateo abstract showed it ( and I think you
agreed with me ) it seems strange that Mr. Rice should not discover
it. Is it possible that we are mistaken? If so, I should think
that the Eastons have not a good title to these two pieces.

Yours truly,

S. L. Winchester
