The following letter was probably written by Elijah Jacklin, son of Mary Ann and Richard Jacklin.

Perth, March 9th, 1906

Dear Brother and Sister:

Received your letter all right and very glad to hear from you.

Mother's Fathers' name was Samuel Smith. He was a soldier and served 21 years in India. Mother had two brothers and one sister.

We have never seen any of the friends from England except one cousin, Christopher Dales, Mother's sister's son. He came from England and was going to California, but we never heard from him again.

Father's fathers' name was Richard Jacklin. They lived at a place known at that time as Jacklin's Lane in Lincolnshire, England. Mother was married first to Thomas Jacklin, but he didn't live long and she was then married to his brother Richard Jacklin.

Thomas was Tom's father. The three boys Thomas, Joe and John were all born in England. In 1836 they came from England I think.

I don't know our Great Grandfather's name-Maria has no papers of Mother's. I went to see her but she has none.

I have seen all the friends and they are all well except Shel. He had pneumonia early in the Spring.
