A. L. S. Endorsed. 1 page. 4o
Description
Has received his letter and one from Mr. Brown; hopes he may sell his land in Maryland and be able to pay his debt to Crow; if there is money in J. Driver's hands he might pay it if he knew it was needed; writes of his own need, increased by the purchase of a lot in Baltimore; thinks well of the suggestion that he should buy a place near Baltimore instead of in the city; if war should occur it would unsettle all his plans, his friends would be scattered, and the value of his property depreciated.
