ole anderson has in the last four months been in my work and has in this time behaved
himself good and dependable. he has here seen to everybody on the farm. members are
strong, have a good health, and much strength. he has for the day taken in his desires
and worked in all kinds of hand work, and then for carpentering. then we can not worry
and forgive. i will not complain and recommend him for the closest and lots of luck in
life's wanderings.
