Synopsis
Excerpt from Diary and Letters of Rutherford Birchard Hayes, Vol. 4: Nineteenth President of the United States
Sitting on the verandah disturbed by persons driving about the place. From the new route the house looks low, rather squatty. But this gives it an old-fashioned look which is not undesirable.
Last evening we got forty-two letters. The most of them were congratulatory on the success of the Administration or upon our escape in the railroad accident near Baltimore. There were letters from General Sherman, Mr. Schurz, our darling Fanny, John L. Thomas, Mr. Merritt, Colonel Burt, George William Curtis.
