Our reception and entertainment in Japan has exceeded anything preceding it. At the end of the first year abroad I was quite homesick, but determined to remain to see every country in Europe at least. Now at the end of twenty-six months I dread going back, and would not if there was a line of steamers between here and Australia.

and Tokio, fitted up for our accommodation. Mrs. Grant, Fred & Young—dubbed the Commodore—join me in kindest regards to you. It looks now as if we would leave for home about the 10th of August. But I may change my mind and go back to visit Australia, and some other places left out, and go back by the Sandwich Islands. In this case we will not reach San Francisco before March. Yours Truly, U. S. Grant. Gen. A. Badeau. Letter no. Fifty-two.
