May 19th

About nine o’clock this morning the wagons with our supplies began coming into the Fort and the work of unloading and checking off the goods began. It took nearly the entire day to unload. There were eleven large wagons closely packed. I received a box of medicine, which had been ordered last October. Do you not think that is very quick delivery. Nearly seven months. I began to think I had better order my medicines for next winter immediately.
