FROM A PRISON BOY.
San Quentin, Cal.,
Sept. 13, ——.
My dear Friend Mother Roberts:
I received your letter of the 4th inst. and was very glad to get it, and will try and drop you a line in answer now, although there is not much in the way of news. I am much better now and am working outside around the warden's house, where I can get plenty of fresh air; so I think the time will pass much more pleasanter than if I was on the inside of the prison walls. I had quite a siege of sickness (pleuro-pneumonia the doctor pronounced it), but I am getting better all the time and think soon to be entirely strong again.
I think often of the kindness you showed me while I was in —— I will close now, hoping that God will take care of you, which is the prayer of your friend, San Francisco, Cal.,A—— G——.
