Excerpt from A Volunteer With Pike: The True Narrative of One Dr. John Robinson and of His Love for the Fair Se orita Vallois

HE first time I was blessed with a sight of the senorita was on the day of my arrival in the Federal City, in fact, it was upon my arrival. An inquiry in the neighborhood of the President's House for my sole acquaintance in the city, Senator Adair of Kentucky, had resulted in my being directed to Conrad's boarding house on the Capitol Hill.
