Simeon A. Howe Letter : May 22, 1865

Simeon explains to Cindonia that his recent travels have prevented him from writing letters to her. He also apologizes for not properly expressing his love for her in his previous letters and for jokingly referring to one of her letters as tedious. Simeon says he will be in Washington, D.C., in two days to take part in the grand review of General Sherman's army.
