Hudson's letter received. Dallas' trip from McKavett was unpleasant as the whole country was flooded. A Texas rain can fill a dry ravine within 3 minutes to a roaring torrent. Dallas waited 4 days in a village for the Yllano river to go down in order to cross. Over 12 houses were blown over at the fort but no loss of life. Dr. Havard and Father Heyburn were at Fort Clark but left before Dallas returned. Father Heyburn returned to his station at Eagle Pass. Dallas explains a Court Martial procedure. Dallas read Judge Dunne's address and then read it to Mrs. Dallas. He would like some of the pamphlets. With the exception of occasional attacks of lumbago Dallas is very much improved in health. Dallas has written Mother Annunciata that he proposes to remove Marie from school after 2 years. He is glad to hear of Elise's talent. Dallas hopes to have a change of duties soon. Mrs. Dallas sends regards. :: X-2-f A.L.S. 7pp. 12mo.
