The first person I saw was Sgt. Mjr. Heffernan next Sgt. Patch but sad to relate they both leave for the [Philippine] Islands about the 25th I could not find the adjt until five P.M. he is a most casual man and told me there was nothing to do till the 8th gets here about the 25th. He also told me that I was to be examined to day which scared me to death but I wired for a months extension which I have not yet heard from. The president of the examining board is Maj Langhorn whith [sic] whom I dined he wanted specially to be remembered to Pa. I am living with Capt. Kirpatric he has a nice mess and house and is most cordial so I am fixed up fine. I have been studying to bent hell all day and Capt. Oliver has lent me his troop to drill in the morning. I will not go to the border though I think it better than this place. Don’t tell B. [his wife, Beatrice] that I may not go to the border She would have a fit. I had a fine summer.” After his signature, Patton adds, “I have no H.F.” Central horizontal and vertical folds, one through a single letter of signature, and a uniform shade of mild toning, otherwise fine condition.
