You will see by the above that I am at home came up on the night train from Saturday night How is every thing there. I will doubtless be there to attend Co. Court and if Craig sees Powers tell him I want him to take up my case in behalf of the state whether I come or not for it can be done as well if I am not there If any thing turns up worthy of note come to Georgia & telegraph to Bent My face is pretty sore but doing well What do folks say about my going away &.c. Write on receipt of this

Yours &.c.E.C. Smith
