In 1905 the Rattler published a letter from Will S. Bond describing a trip to Linsey California. "While looking over the newspapers at my uncle's I saw an item about an A. Pinckard. I asked my uncle to describe this Mr. Pinckard, and he told me he was a tall, young man about 28 or 30, with black hair and that he once lived in Colordo. I asked uncle what he was doing and he said he was running a small donkey farm and had a nice orchard, and was doing very well. He lived about 50 miles north of Linsey. So one nice day, uncle and I drove over to see him, for I felt sure I knew him.
We started bright and early, and got there about 5 o'clock. It was a long drive, but the road ws good and we had a fine dringint team.
One the way uncle told me he was married, and had been there about five years. He worked for him when he first came to California.
When we reached there, I found it to be my old school mate, Art and he did not know me. "Well, Art, old boy, how are you? " said I. "Well, I have seen you before, but I can not call your name" said he. "Will is my name, and I came from Colorado about a week ago."
"O, yes, I know who you are now, but I never thought to see you in California, but here you are."
We stayed all night, and Art showed us over the farm. The orchard and flowers were beautiful and we enjoyed our visit with them very much.
