CINCINNATI, August
25, 1865.
MY DARLING: I am not
yet quite sure but I think we shall go into our old home about the middle of
October — not sooner. You can give up your rooms when you come down, if you
prefer to do so. . . .
I had a fine time yesterday
at the Green Township “Harvest Home” – beautiful custom, where old, young,
etc., dance, sing, eat, play, and listen to speeches. Matthews made one of the
set speeches. I was also exhibited as a "vet" and got off very
luckily with a few successful sentences.
I shall look for you
sometime next week. Have told Uncle we shall be there next week – middle to
last of the week. We shall go via Toledo if you do not object.
Love to all. Ever your
R.
