The Army and the Law. A Civil War Era Message
A long, fragmented letter addresses constitutional succession and military action in a crisis. It argues for lawful machinery to decide presidential succession, defends Hancock’s role, and condemns partisan blame while urging adherence to the Constitution and peaceful resolution rather than conflict.

Reflections on crops and a farmer's aging year
The writer, a farmer in Arp, muses on harvests and family life as the crops lay by. He notes healthier corn and vines, the end of tending the youngest child, and worries about national politics and future labor, while reflecting on providence and change. He cites agricultural reports on corn, tobacco, and fruit, with cautious optimism for a good late crop.
