A few hundred pesos.
:08:09
Name's James Cody. Dallas, Texas.
:08:13
A letter from Dallas, too.
It must be his home.
:08:16
Reckon she's his girl.
:08:20
Not bad.
:08:23
"Dear Jim: Your letter just arrived.
:08:26
"It was such a relief to get word
after so many months of...
:08:31
"silence.
:08:33
"I realize, of course, that...
:08:36
"there aren't any mailboxes
that you can drop a letter in...
:08:42
"out there in the wild."
:08:44
You better read it.
:08:46
"But that doesn't keep me
from worrying about you.
:08:50
"Little Jimmy is fine, but he misses
his daddy almost as much as I do.
:08:55
"He keeps asking,
'When's Daddy coming home? '
:08:58
"You say if you do not make
a real find this time...
:09:01
"you'll never go again.
:09:03
"I cannot begin to tell you
how my heart rejoices...
:09:07
"at those words, if you really mean them.
:09:10
"Now I feel free to tell you...
:09:12
"I've never thought
any material treasure...
:09:16
"no matter how great, is worth the pain
of these long separations.
:09:22
"The country is especially lovely this year.
:09:25
"It's been a perfect spring.
Warm rains and hardly any frost.
:09:29
"The fruit trees are all in bloom.
:09:32
"The upper orchard looks aflame...
:09:34
"and the lower, like after a snowstorm.
:09:37
"Everybody looks forward to big crops.
:09:40
"I do hope you are back for the harvest.
:09:46
"Of course, I'm hoping
that you will at last strike it rich.
:09:50
"It is high time for luck...
:09:52
"to start smiling upon you.
:09:54
"But just in case she doesn't...
:09:56
"remember we've already found
life's real treasures.
