Congress Hall June 12th, 1849.
My Dearest Frances,
Mr Hunt
me understand the location of the Houses. The one that is on Mis-
souri Avenue is I think too low, and the one on Maryland Avenue
is not too far off from the Capitol. I incline to take that.
But I will see you before I decide.
Your pin is in the Jeweler's hands – Mr Franklin
send you 1 Dozen fine Dahlias – and three more gladiolus
by express today.
I am not well – but my symptoms are not
of the Cholera Kind. So you need feel no alarm for me.
Ever your own Henry.
