That is me holding the mules - Lou is sitting down." On verso, "4-16-'08 Nampa, Ida. Dear Cousin - Greeting. This is a view of a crew that Louis and I are working with this spring. We are making an irrigating canal. Well, how are all Bluffton people? We are all well as usual. Remember me to all - with best regards to all. Your cousin, John H." - ID-E-0015, WaterArchives.org
