At breakfast Capt. Seward and Bernard said Nettleton had
returned. After breakfast saw him and received a note from Sister Melissa
expressing her delight at the visit with “her dear Lu” and giving a description
of Minnie's marriage. Sent a nice handkerchief. Read some during the day. In the
evening Capt. Nettleton called, invited me to walk and gave me a minute
description of his call at Chicago for Melissa; his visit on the road; visit
and business with Tod, about colonel etc.; visit at home, and Minnie's
marriage. Enjoyed all. Capt. Welsh interrupted us and I went to my quarters.
