CINCINNATI, September 17, 1865.
DEAR MOTHER WEBB:— I
left Lucy and the boys at Fremont—all well and very happy—last Tuesday. I did
expect to go up to Ross County to see you and George this week, but I am in the
hands of a political committee for the next three weeks and can't determine my
own movements much better than I could when I was in the army. . . .
We can get our house
soon after October and may be able to get in it by the 15th or 20th.—Love to
all.
Affectionately,
R. B. HAYES.
MRS. MARIA WEBB, Chillicothe.
