By tha way, there ia a vary large Jewish family that goes by tha name of London* Thaaa ware Austrian Java who oame over to England about two hundred yaars agofront Austria and who ohanged thair nana to London* Since that time thay hava spread all over the world, aa I wall know, because I have encountered them all over the world.

[Original at Jack London Ranch] Written from Ranch Charmain in Fabiola Hospital after birth and death of Joy (their only child) at birth August 2, 1910 D ear e s t My-Wo man:- The papers were slow in getting started because my signature to open letter was typed and they feared it was a fake. But, honestly, I believe I've got Samuels' goat 1 He's afraid to come back. It's election time, you know, and I think enough botes will be swung to defeat him. Also hush mention it not 1 got a tip from Noel to-day, which remains to be investigated and proved, namely (l) Samuels is partly interested - in Muldowney's dive — how, I do not know. And, (2) one of Samuels relatives owns the ground and the building rented by Muldowney. Noel is looking it up. Election the waterfront, other places, there are any number of men, not socialists, who will remember me and scratch Samuels' name from the ballot. Incidentally, Muldowney goes on getting more public notoriety for his place, and is sorry he ever met me. He'll have a job living down (police) the notoriety I've given him. There is a daily published in Oakland named The Mail, I believe. Look up and send me what it said yesterday. Don't forget to-day's Call and Chronicle. Two letters, on strength of evening papers publication of letter, show how some votes will swing. I am saving all your letters. I only destroyed one the "blue" one in which you worried about me and Samuels. (signed) Your Own Man.

Glen Ellen, California, November 12, 19.15. Pear Joan: In reply to yotirs of November 5, 1915: First of mil, I think I hive given orders to have sent to you a oheok for $7.50 to oover the extra cost of tha silk dress. If you hav« not recffivno. this cheek please let ne know, and I shall have it i^romptly sent. Yes, I will sit alongside Beoky, but I will not be able to meet her outside and go la with her. Ike must have lief own ticket and go in and take her seat, and I will meet her there at her sent. My reasons for this are simple and ample. I ar. going to "y^nd four hours of that day in the dentist's chair. The rest of the day will be apemt ia getting something to eat and going to a turkish bath in order to forget how badly my mouth hurts me. So I shall arrive at the auditorium just in tine to go in and take ay seat. As regards/ my tioket, it would be the easiest thing for me if you mailed it to me ear« of Grandma at 490 ftfth Street, or gave it to Grandma with instructions to hold it for me and txirn over to rm whan I arrive from Glen Ellen. Mow if it be mailed under my narae to Grandma without any instructions, Grandma will most likely re-address the letter to Glen Ellen, and I shall be in Oakland and the tioket will be in Glen llleftj so it is ttf to you so to arrange it that Grandma will hold the ticket in Oakland and give it to ne when I oome down. h fhen I seo Becky I will pay her the half dollar for my tioket. As regards your eritioisn of Dr. Goodhue's article, on ne, entitled "The absolutely Rancher", I agree/with you in your eritioisn. I could not have stated it better myself. I shall be forever unable to se« you and Beoky at your Piedmont hone. As you know, the ranch is always open to both of you. Also, sometime, if you eatiVMlxP oan see your way to it, I should be glad to have you oone and have lunch or dinner with ne at the "Saddle Rook" restaurant on 13th Street. JB/JL

Jack London letter to Jack London of Cottage Grove, Oregon, dated March 21, 1913.
[Original at Jack London Ranch] March 21, 1913 Jack L. London, Esq. Cottage Grove, Oregon My dear Jack London: Some time recently I had forwarded to me from Mr. Hillier, your letter of Feb. 25, 1913. This is the second time I have received a letter from Jack London—nay, it is the third time. Down in Sydney, Australia, lying in hospital[sic], I received a letter from a boy, Jack London, who lived over in Western Australia. About a hear and a half ago I received a letter from Jack London in Omaha; and now I learn of you, still another Jack London. I wonder if we are related. Please find herewith a short biography of yours truly. Tell me about yourself; send me a photo of yourself. Let me know if you think we are related, and what the branch of the family is from which you have descended. The Londons, as you know, are a very large family. In fact, there are two great London families. One is a Jewish family which came to England from Austria about 200 years ago, and changed its name to London. I am not a member of this family. I am a member of the English family of Londons, hundreds of whom now reside in the City of London and are in the City of London Directory, while hundreds of their emigrant descendents are living in various parts of the U.S., from the Ear West to the Ear South and on up to Old New England. Pleast tell me all about yourself. Sincerely yours, (signed) Jack London

COPY Glen Ellen, August 29, 1913 Dearest Joan: Of course, read all your letters from me,to your mother. This is to reply to yours of Aug.27, 1913. No; I neither "see" nor "understand." If you came to see me 6$ Glen Ellen here, you would see me, all tha world, and my wife. When you ask as if I cannot see, if I cannot understand, I answer you that I cannot see, cannot understand what you think you see, and what you think you understand. Now is the time for us to get right up in meeting on our hind legs and testify to what we see and understand. WHAT DO YOU SEE AND UNDERSTAND! Now is the time. Tell me. Let me glimpse the face of truth as you glimpse it. Tell me what the faceJof truth looks like. If you don't tell me, then do you refuse to share truth with me. Then are you not true to me. And can you or I travel very far together in this world when you refuse to seek anything less than perfect understanding with me!—----anything less than full truth shared between us! Remember that truth is the greatest thing in the worlc. If you will be great, you will be true. If you suppress truth, if you hide truth, if you do not rise up and speak out in meeting, if you speak out in meeting without speaking the whole truth, then are you less true and than truth by that much are you less than great. Now just what is it that you see, and you understand, which prevents you from coming to see me on ray ranch. Don't be afraid of being harsh. Don't be afraid of being true. What is it you see and understand (which I in truth can neither see nor understand) that prevents you from corning to my ranch! In all love, (Signed) Daddy.

Piedmont, Cal., Dear Dad: ' Get.20, 1913. I was unable to write Saturday, on account of Portola, on Sunday, on account of company, and so here I am writing now, Monday night. I 'm all ready for bed, in my bed slippers and oajr.mas, and my hair hanging down. I 'in curled up on the couch in my bed room, and as soon as I 'm through I 'li "beat, it" to bed, for there are two ox's to-morrow. One I 'n long- for, and the other well, I 'm not longing for it, 'cause it is a French ex. The first one is an ex. in Algebra. Yumi yum'. I love Algebra'.l' '.Veil, Dad, I ' ve r ad over your letter, read it twice and carefully, and I understand from it that silence on my part means that I am satisfied with my present surroundings-. I tried to keep silence, for I am satisfied, but you have demanded an answer. So, this I nay, I am perfectly satisfied with my present surroundings and do a»t wish to change them. I resent your opinions of my mother. Sho is considered as one of the finest coach^rs in Oakland, by the principals of the different schools, and Mr.Barker, Supt. of Schools. Her pupils can always be marked by their good work In both grammar and high schools. And above all this, she is a good mother, end what is greater, in this world, than a good mother! This is not only my opinion but also, of many others. And now, Daddy, since we have thrashed this question out together, may wo not leave it. I have nothing more to say in the matter, for I have given my final decree. I shall stay ; with my mother, and I shall keep my promise to do so, until I 'm old enough to support myself. ELease, Daddy, please let mo feel that this is the last of these awful letters you force me to write you; it hurts me so to write them, and yot, you/ demand these kind of answers and I can only write them. Now, I 'm, getting so sleepy that I close one eye and then the other to keep awake and I lm yawning continuously, so Good night mon cher p6re, et "sweet dreams." Lots of love, (Signed)J oan.
