Hiram, September 15, 1864.
My Dear Corydon: — Yours of August 24th has lain unanswered
for some time in consequence of my absence. I have just got home — temporarily
broken down with a cold. I find myself overwhelmed with a world of work in the
way of correspondence. I have, therefore, only time to say that I promised Colfax
that I will speak for him from the 27th inst. to October 1st inclusive,
beginning at Peru. I hope to see you and have you with me as much as possible.
Crete and Almeda join me in love to you and Mary.
Ever yours,
James.
