Dear Father,
I was very glad
to hear Saturday on my
return to this place after
a short absence that you
had arrived safely in
NY improved in health.
I have applied for a
leave of Absence the
first part of November
to enable me to make
you a visit.
I leave here to-morrow
for St Augustine Fla
Shall probably be gone
some 10 days.
Your affectionate son
Augustus
