During his travels and after his return home he published, in the "Ogle County Reporter," fifty letters, under the title of "Rambles in the Orient," ably written, and full of interesting information. Under date of 17 June, 1875, he says, "In relation to my two voyages across the Atlantic and my travels in Europe, I must say, in all candor, that I revert to them as the most palmy days of my earthly pilgrimage. Should opportunity occur, I would again cheerfully place myself upon the perilous waves, that I might once more enjoy the rich feast spread out before me in the classic lands of the Orient."
