Dear Ode:
This is Sunday P.M. I am at the office. I have looked over the mail, read some in the papers, and
will now write you. I have been very, very much disappointed all week in not hearing from you.
Surely you can get time to write me a few lines at least.
Well, I went to Enid Tuesday to speak at the celebration there, but did not speak. It was so windy
and dusty and [?] confusion on the streets [strikethrough] went [/strikethrough] was such that I
saw it would be very unsatisfactory to speak- so I just excused myself. McGuire spoke. I went
from there to Guthrie and was there Wednesday. Saw Fred and Lucy- but took no meals there.
Have been quite busy this

week attending to such business as came before me. And what spare time I have i have put in
preparing my political speech. I begin my first speech about five miles in the county from here.
and will speak a time or two again in this county this week. Saturday I speak at Lawton at 2 P.M.
Saturday night at Apache, the principal town between Lawton and Anadarko. I presume I will
stay here next Sunday. I am billed for Hobart Oct 6th and in other places all that week, reaching
home about midnight Saturday night Oct. 11th. The Territorial Committee want me to give them
all the time I can during Oct. and I presume I ought to keep all I can. Having written you and
asked you when you would start home and had

no reply, I am yet awaiting an answer on that point. I am sorry I will have to be away from home
so much in October- but feel that a refusal on my part to help in the Campaign would bot be best
for me. More than this I [strikethrough] say [/strikethrough] believe Republican success will help
get statehood and I am anxious for that. Now, Ode, if you have not written don't want [underline]
one minute [/underline]. [underline] Write me [/underline]! I hope you are well and enjoying
yourself. It is getting lonesome here without and I shall certainly be glad when you can come.
Remember me to all the folks. With love and kisses in great abundance Your loving husband,
