Stayed in Rutland last night; took the 4 o'clock a. m. train
for Burlington, but to my disgust found it to be a freight; arrived at
Burlington at noon; took the 1 o'clock p. m. train for Montpelier; arrived
there at 4 o'clock p. m.; stopped at Burnham's Hotel; found Carl Wilson; hasn't
changed much in three years nor Montpelier; think a boil is coming on my ankle;
am half sick.
