Monday April 15 th
My dearest Henry
I hope there is
some adequate measures
taken for the protection
of Washington – if
the reports of the
surrender of Ft Sumpter
are true that will
undoubtedly be the
next point attacked
I wish I were with
you – it is so sad
to be away from
you and feel that
you are environed
with difficulties
and dangers – may
I come to you –
your own
Frances
