Written to his aunt, Mrs. George A. Frick (Rebecca Frick). Wishes that his aunt would send him a five dollar bill in tomorrow's mail. Reports that he received a letter from John, whom with another company, is occupying a very dangerous position at Deep Creek. Excuses himself for writing the letter in haste and for the quality of his pen. A postscript note informs his aunt that he will pass through Danville tomorrow on his way to Wilkesbarre, Pennsylvania.
