Diary and Letters of Rutherford Birchard Hayes

Camp White, March 11, 1864.

Dear Uncle: — Home again with Lucy and all the boys — well and happy. Birch did not meet his brothers until he saw them here last night. Three happier boys I never saw. They are all very well. — Love to all.

Sincerely,

R. B. Hayes.

S. Birchard.
