Governor Rutherford B. Hayes to Sardis Birchard, August 16, 1869

COLUMBUS, August 16, 1869.

DEAR UNCLE:—The business of the office and the canvass keep me busy. I go to Chillicothe at noon and will be absent "on the circuit" two weeks before I return. Things look well. Pendleton's nomination makes the race more interesting and more doubtful. But I guess it will be all right. My health, voice, and spirits are of the best.

Sincerely,
R. B. HAYES.
S. BIRCHARD.
Private.
