After a long absence in the mountains & lakes of Vermont & northern New York, I am
now back again at work, & expect to remain here. Your letter of May 23d, also the
one with the picture, safely reached me.
I send you, by same mail with this, in a little book, my piece lately delivered for
Dartmouth College commencement, up north. Did Democratic Vistas reach you?
We have had, in this country, a summer more fit for the infernal regions—but now the delicious Virginia September has set in, balmy cool, & one dilates & feels like work again.
My address continues the same, Solicitor's Office Treasury, Washington, D.C.
