Misdated, possibly 17 June 1868. Explains to his wife that he does not write often because the post office is very far away. He believes the mountain air is good for him and feels better than he has in ten years. Says that the food seems to taste better and describes camp life and his natural surroundings. Reports having found gold, though he is not sure if it is a sign of more to come. Adds that he is in Trinity County, California, on the Trinity River.
