constant attendance at the White House
I'd EXECUTIVE MANSION,
WASHINGTON, August II, 1881.
My DEAR SIR-Your favor of the 10th re-
ceived. The newspapers get things mixed
somewhat. The President is in much better
condition now than at any time since the in
jury, ana ls improving every DAY, with every
prospect of going steadily on to recovery. Since
you left he was obliged to undergo pretty Sc
we're operation, which promises to be the last in
the way Of cutting. You need feel no anxiety,
for his recovery is only matter of time.
In regard to nursing We have things well ar
ranged now. Mrs. Edison takes him one night
until a. M, and General Swain follows her,
and remains until q. m. then take him and
remain with him until Mrs. Edison returns
some time during the day, and then she and I
oba korvir1 rruifh
The next day stay with him until 8 q. M,
then Colonel Rockwell follows me and remains
until q. m, when again take him, and so it
goes day after day, and night after night.
I read your letter to the President and Mrs.
Garfield. They send their love, and say that
you need not think Of coming back, for he is
getting along SO well that he will not need SO
much care after few days. He is weak, but
much stronger than when you left, and in very
good condition every way. 8. A. BoYNToN.
