"I wanted to urge upon you to hold on to your Hood Kiver home, for I am sure with my knowledge of real estate values from coast to coast, tnai you do not appreciate the intrinsic value of the ranch you own. In this wurk-a day world, where every thing we pet worth having costs eflort.we sometimes grow weary waiting to enjoy the fruit ef our toil, hut 1 am sure if you could know that all the world knows about a little va'ley hidden away in the summit oi tne Cascade mountains in the state .l Oregon where prefect apples i.re grown as I 'know about the name and reputation of this valley, you would appreciate moie highly than you do the fact that you own a part of this favored valley. As I looked out over the ranches and homes all around you yesterday morning and then away at the hills and mountains on every hand, I said to myself, 'Was there ever a gem in such a setting as this Mount Hood watching over the valley at the south, Mount Adams at the north in full view, with the Columbia river near by as a highway to all the markets of the world.' "1 sir.cerely hope you may live many years to enjoy the benefits of your labor, and I am looking forward to a time in the future when'l may be per mitted again to visit you.
