HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE UNITED STATES,
ST. LOUIS, Mo., Dec. 10, 1874.
Dear Brother: I have
just received from the President's secretary a note, saying he may want me to
attend a dinner and reception he proposes to give the King of the Sandwich
Islands, and I have answered that on a two days' notice I can be there. . . .
Affectionately,
W. T. SHERMAN.
