The letter is dated August 26, but there is a notation halfway down the first page that much of it was written August 30. In the first part, she writes that there has been a good deal of rain and wind. In the second part, she writes that the cotton crop is "very much injured" as a result of the storms and mentions a friend whose cotton had "turned black with the rot." She also says that her husband is planning to build a mill.
