Transcription

Wednesday afternoon I scribbled a few words to you this morning while the train was moving back and forth at the station. Georgie had written and picked up mine [letter] in a hurry and gave them to the [porter] who ran to the post office with them. She must have sent the 2 [cards] that were directed to [ ], as I cannot find them, but how ridiculous to send a card without writing on it. In the midst of the great Mohave desert, and how do you think I feel when I think of 1849
