Chandler describes his brother Charles’s arrival and writes that he “doesn’t think mining will suit Charlie very well.” When Charles first arrived, Chandler “did not know him from the man in the moon, neither did he me.” If he does well in the summer, Chandler plans to travel to the U.S. or send money for Jane to come to him in the fall. Notations in pencil on the first page at the top read: “Trials of the Tender-foot, Renewal of acquaintance with brother Charles, the writer hires some men, contemplates a trip from Utah to the U.S.” Pencil marks highlight certain parts of the text pertaining to the title.
