1875 June 22nd 8 P.M. My dear A - this has been another very long day and comin out from the office this A.M. about 11 O'Clock having on my military Cap and having lately had my hair cut I came near having a stroke of the sun. I felt quite badly with some headache most of the day and have been in bed nearly ((unclear)) since I returned from the Office - Am feeling better this evening. I will be more careful hereafter and think I will wear my white hat hereafter when I have to be out in the sun. My chairs and ((druggets?)) and hearth rugs came to-day or rather they cameyesterday . but the train was not unloaded and the things sent over to the house until to-day. Buttler opened the bundles . The chairs were rubbed a little and some of the pieces knocked off but not much injured. Your government will write and put the door ((rest unclear - in margin))
