Farallon Island Lighthouse: Pages from the Past
Dear Brother Horace, As I have not written to you for some time, and have received several letters from you in the interium, I suppose it is about time to "spread myself' for the purpose and here I am....I have heard from town (San Francisco) but once this month, and I will tell you, I am getting awful tired of this loneliness, it is almost as bad as the state prison, but I am in hopes that government will make some arrangements to have a vessel visit us regularly. I am trying hard for it and have written one or two "official" letters on the subject.
