Exeter, N.H. March 4, 1860

Dear Wife:

When I wrote to you before I was just starting on a little speech making tour, taking the boys with me. On Thursday they went with me to Concord, where I spoke in daylight, and back to Manchester where I spoke at night. Friday we came down to Lawrence, the place of the Pemberton Mill tragedy, where we remained four hours awaiting the train back to Exeter. When it came, we went upon it to Exeter where the boys got off, and I went on to Dover and spoke there Friday evening. Saturday I came back to Exeter, reaching here about noon, and finding the boys all right, having caught up with their lessons.

Bob has a letter from you saying Willis and Teddy were very sick the Saturday night after I left. Having no response from you, and having one from Springfield, of Wednesday from Mr. Fitzhugh, saying nothing about our family, I think the dear little fellows are well again.

This is Sunday morning; and according to Bob's orders, I am to go to Church once today. Tomorrow I bid farewell to the boys, go to Hartford, Conn. and speak there in the evening; Tuesday at Meriden; Wednesday at New Haven; and Thursday at Woonsocket R.I. Then I start home, and think I will not stop. I may be delayed in New York City an hour or two. I have been unable to escape this toil. If I had foreseen it I think I would not have come East at all. The speech at New York, being within my calculations before I started, went off passably well, and gave me no trouble whatever.
