I often think of our trip from Kankakee to Laporte & especially our ride on the old "emigrant train" I wonder if our friend from Chicago has got off yet? I reckon he is within half a mile of the crossing by this time.

   You must write me of the success of your R R operations on the Cincinnati to Peru Road, I hope you will do well on that road.  This Road here is about dead, or will  wile probably go into the "Bond holders hands", tho I suppose great efforts will be made by those holding a large amount of "Stock" to save the road.  How is your health?  and are you in pretty good spirits over your speculation?  Have you heard from Mr. Tyner since we left?  I hope that operation will come out right yet.  Miram have you got over that burn?  We recd a letter from home a few weeks since they were not very well.  Areli was troubled with the dyspepsia, We wrote a few days ago for Elisabeth to come out this winter and make us a long visit, My trip west did me much good.  I weigh more now than have since I was married.  Respects to Mr. & Mrs. Gleason.  Miram is the Mayor wife doing me in sending much love.  Write soon 

From your friend & br. Geo. W. Creighbaum
