Mr. Editor;— I speeted to write you a little notice last week, but for reasons that I can't explane in this lecter. So I got my son in law, that lives in Burlington to write you his own mind. I stayed in Washington longer than I speeted two, for I hain’t never seen before or since such a delitful place as our National Capitol. You know, I wish I bad you by the paw and looking wright strait into your block, I would just tell you a few things that I have just seen in this city, but I am so far away and I am afraid that I will never get home any more that I nmst tell you about it write now. I did not eat any griib at the New Willard jOr the Ea;leigh Hotel, but I just idr;’ppea into two that calf and vvberever I was, when feed timei kum upon me, but i got me a room away down on Delaware I Avenue, so Ikuld see the onward {march of the pie brigade. It you ever wuz in Washing ton you will remember that Delaware'" A.venew is a street ; that I'uns direct from the Union ! Station too the Capitol. When ever I got real lonely at night and v^'anted to see some of the folks from down home all I had to do-wuz to stick my block out ! of the w inder and I kud see more Burlirigton foiks and lots of Greensboro folks rushing right up. to,the Capitol than you ever j that about. I can't tell the i niimea oi them all for it would ’ take two long a tyme, but I does remember that as soon as one Burlington man wuz eone anoth* er \vou]d comc in on thf Southern train from the South. I asked a beer jerker how busi ness wuz and he said it shore was .good, for it seamed to him that all of us Tar Heels must be on fire on the inside from oar toes up, from the amount of ice cold beer, it took to quench our thirst, and refresh our anatomy.

My good friend Col. Watts has been delayed in receiving a piece of pie, because he is a con servative and a gentlemen and scholar of the first waters, I also no how to sympathize with him. I oertainly was glad to get the letters that you forwarded me, that spoke so complimentary of my first letter, but you sent me a few letters that were unsigned and I did not know who the writer wuz, and I wish I had never received thepi for they talk mean an 3 bad and they talk like that my days may end soon and like those of the Caimick tragedy of Tennessee, or become a Gobelite of the Blue Grass State. I can't help it that my spelling is poor, my diction bad and that it is necessary to ex press myself very forcibly at times that, 1 used a little slang. I have those precious' little mementoes laid away in the archives of my memory so that I may know in eternity that I have made glad s.>me, and to my sor row Vv'outided the feehngs of others, I would like to do everything just right so that i would not , have an enemy in awl the world fi^’stjand be so popular arr.ong the ladies, so that al! the pretty ones would want to hold my hand by day as well as by night, but such a time has never come in rny life and I fear never will, because I have never seen anybody else that looks hke Sal, and I suppose that if I had not have loved her she would have gone unloved all the rest of her days.
