Congressman Rutherford B. Hayes to Lucy Webb Hayes, July 12, 1866

WASHINGTON, D. C., July 12, 1866.

MY DARLING: We are in a very exciting caucus. Hot as blazes. Senator Wilson is speaking in an excited, earnest way. Dennison has resigned—others are going. We may be in session a month or more longer. It is likely I will have to come to see you. It is perhaps too hot for you to come here.

Affectionately, yours ever,
H.
MRS. HAYES.
