"I arrived here safely yesterday morning after a very tiresome hot and uncomfortable trip of nearly 2 days from Richmond and the trains all very late and all crowded, owing to a very large assemblage of old soldiers at Washington, on one of their annual gatherings." - Excerpt from a letter, Arthur William Catesby Smyth to Beatrice Alice Smyth, dated September 25, 1892, The Magnolia, Orlando, Florida.
