Nesbitt Memorial Library Journal
march to Sandy Point, Brazoria County, as soon
as we are relieved by Col: Daly's mounted
Battalion; which I hope will be soon. Mr Brad-
shaw has some leather which he probably would
sell, or exchange for something you have, such
as lard or something of that sort. You need a
quantity of sole leather, & also some harness
leather, & upper leather. Have you had shoes
made for the negroes yet? You can read the last
militia law & guess when I can get home. I hope
your brother got home safe. Write me all the
news by Mr Draub, Mr Holman, or Mr Brad-
shaw, or any one coming to join the Battalion.
Give my love to all our folks.
Your affectionate husband

My dear wife
I wrote you the other day by Mr Bradshaw,
but as he did not leave at the time, he sent my
letter by the mail. As he expects to start again to
night I will write you a few more lines. I am still
in good health. It is still very cold, freezing. We
are ordered to march to Sandy Point, Brazoria
County, as soon as we are relieved by Col Dalys
command. Please send me by Mr Draub, the
number of the State Gazette containing the late
law for reorganization of the militia.
Give my love to all our folks
Your affectionate husband
