 Title:  Letter to John T. Blake, November 1859 [a machine-readable transcription]  
 Published:  1996 
 Description: I am happy to inform you of my safe arrival in this place, found all well and glad to see me. I have nothing of importance to communicate the times seem hard, money scarce, but not quite so bad as in Greenbrier for here you can get plenty to eat for the money—and at rather reasonable prices. I see by the paper this morning that Cook has been convicted — Stevens has been handed over to the U.S authority and will doubtless be tried in Staunton. There is considable excitement ment here in reference to this insurrection. Many persons are selling, and sending their negros to the South. My kindest raguards to your Mother & Sister I have no news to give you. I read none I thought I would write you a line to let you know of my safe arrival — Love to — all
