Seminole Agency Dec 11 / 68 Dear Alice,

   We arrived here all O.K. at 11 ½ A.M.  Hope to reach Fort Arbuckle Sunday night - or by Monday -  We may possibly go to Fort Cobb first and then to Arbuckle but I hardly think so as the weather is so very cold and we need another supply of Commissary Stores  We now select the most protected places in the timber near the Creeks for camping instead of the high [?windy?] knobs or hills as in Summer - Will write you from Fort Arbuckle

Affectionately B.H.G.

[written vertically in left margin]

Expect to Camp to-night near [?Settle?] River B.H.G.
