reply notwithstanding the roundabout course this letter is likely to take to reach you. -- When you write send me a list of your engagements -- also the date when they commence in the fall -- I will send you a couple of photographs of myself in hunting scenes taken one in 74 the other in 73 The first in Montana Territory the last in the Blakc Hills. Write me a long letter and tell me all about you & yours since last we parted. If you come here in June I know of no reason why Mrs Barret should not come too -- on this ? Mrs Custer and I can adduce some excellent and urgent reasons why she should -- If you desire to meet with a cordial reception you had better not fail to bring Mrs Barrett with you. Mrs Custer joins me in sincere love to both Mrs B and youself Do not fail to write soon. Faithfully yours Custer
