Letter From Rio Janeiro Describes Emigration Offer and Travel Plan
A 1867 letter discusses a pioneer party of about fifty leaving the village of Xivirien to settle lands near the Ribiera do Tguape. It notes potential emigration to Brazil via Mr. G Nathan, with steamships from New Orleans and Savannah, costs of 120 dollars per adult for four years, and transport to Rio de Janeiro then to a closer port. It mentions expected government support for a related book and remarks on Jefferson Davis trial timing and Mrs Lincoln.
