N. SARGENT, PROPRIETOR, TREMONT HOUSE, FRONT STREET, HEAD OF BLAKE, DENVER, COLORADO. Denver, April 9. 1863
My dear Wife: It is now 5 am. by Denver time. Just 144 hours since I left Atchison. Before shaking off the dust of travel, I write this to say that I have come through without the slightest accident and think that after breakfast, I shall feel quite as well as the morning I left Atchison. Mon amour. As ever Your Affectionate husband Simeon Whiteley
Kind love to all. Will write at length this time? tomorrow evening.
