User-Contributed Transcription 1526 Devisadero? St.San Francisco, Cal.Nov. 22 - 1904Dr. Carlos Montezuma100 State StChicagoDear Friend:The enthusiasm for political work is not so great now in the face f perhaps the most trouble ever I was in. It is trouble temporarily for as soon as I can take up the matter I shall be out of it. - I do not like to go into details of my trouble and unclear suffice it to say that to me it is a serious trouble. It will either be the grand making of my future or the utter ruination of my whole life. I have been making an honest living for many years. I can only say this in strict confidence that while I was at Yainex Indian School the matron and I did not get along at all well. She is the one who has made trouble for me. She is a very ignorant woman and jealous when she sees some one she hates making a successful head way
