CINCINNATI, July 9, 1865.
MY DEAREST:— I have got a large, airy third-story room on the southeast corner of Fourth and Walnut, and find myself remarkably well camped. A little hot, and somewhat lonely of nights. Thus far I find occupation enough with correspondence, listening to all sorts of applications, and hunting up old acquaintances. . . .
General Buckland here today, also Senator Sherman. "Politics a bad trade" runs in my head often. Guess we'll quit. . . .
Affectionately,
R.
MRS. HAYES.
