Transcribe Dunraven. Letter to Ward, Henry A. (1873-08-31)

or ?atangsalt not till the end of the first week. I hope very much that I may be lucky enough to meet you there Perhaps you should write me a line to the care of the officer Commanding at Ft Benton. If I find at Ft. Garry that there is likelihood of any Indian difficulties along the frontier I shall not try that route as it should be annoying to have to retrace my steps
