Dear A.
We have made the trip all O.K. & found a good road which is nearly twenty miles shorter than the way we went out from this point to the mountains I thought I would write to Louise or Joh last night after writing to you but felt too tired & sleepy. I wish you to write Louise upon receipt of this to let them know at Home that I am well and informing them of my whereabouts at this time. We start back to the Mountains to-morrow morning.
Love & kisses for the children and yourself. Ever Affectionately yours B.H.G.
