Address Care Maj John B. Burton Lewisville Lost Prairie July 3rd Capt Colby. Dear Sir: Forgive my seeming neglect I have two excuses viz. I have been very sick with chills and fever and my blanks have been delayed so that I have not got them yet They are in my valise somewhere between here and Camden. I got one from Lewisville. I have a very large school and hard work. I shall return to Chicago the latter part of August. Please write me and tell me if I can get [[strikethrough]] a [[/strikethrough]] half fare return from Gen. Howard Is there anything for me with you after deducting chart & blackboard. My regards to Mrs. C. Yours Truly Homer J. Parker
