| 40El Paso, June 21st 81.
Dear Bro:
I send
you today – in an old [?]
a few specimens of flowers.
Am very sorry they are not more
and that I cannot put them
up in better style, but I must
either send them this way or
throw them away – as I have
no time to arrange them.
Today we leave El Paso for the West.
Hence my haste, I have
snatched up these few specimens
during the [house?] & perhaps ought
to have [?] – so continuously and
hard has been my work
here, and though I have been
here many months yet I
positively have not had time
of my own – even on Sundays to
do this little work of love
which you so much desire of
me. I am recovered from
my late illness and will
soon be on the way toward
Arizona.
Love to all,
H. W. B.
