My Dear Wife: I have just returned from the Mountains, so near the Range that the sunset at 3 P.M. I am so full that I cannot hold, but I cannot write more before the mail closes. I have two letters from you which I shall open as soon as I get this in the Post Office. My health is splendid. As ever- Affectionately Your husband Simeon Whiteley.
