It is very quite here, as yet, though Mrs. Harrison returned last week and many others are straggling in. Up to ten days ago the weather was unusually hot, but it is now cold and unpleasant. The American Board meets at Pittsfield this week, so I suppose the Dawes' will have their hands full. They were all at Mohonk. Mr. Morgan had a note from Miss Kate Foote the other day, written from Guildford.

He is expecting to go to the Indian Territory and Haskell Institute and next month, and will be absent about three weeks. I shall stay at home. He is planning for a hard year's work, with the long session of Congress and is in good condition for it. Mr. Halford told him the other day he though he was a capital fighter and that he generally accomplished his ends. It is hard work, but he seems to enjoy it after a grim sort of fashion. I imagine it is a good thing for the Office to have a non-politician in it for awhile.

But I have written too long, and after all have said very little that is in my mind. I think of you very often and rejoice in your pluck, courage and consecrated spirit. God ever bless you [[crossed out]]?[[/crossed out]].
With much love and kindest regards from Mr. Morgan
