Saturday evening, Oct 2, ’52
Old fellow
Your uncle Keyes, myself &
the dogs all got down to this city safely – I have collected all my money
to buy sheep with; and uncle Keyes & I have engaged a state room in
the steam Boat called the “Forrest City” that goes out this evening –
so we have better luck than common, in being able to accomplish during
the day what was contemplated in the morning. Give my love to Theodore
& Robert and all the rest of the folks – and Keyes says so too.
Your affectionate uncle
Willis Fawcett
