UTSA James Morgan Papers

Cedar Point 29th May 1841

Dear Col I rec'd your medicine, and finding on trial that it did not agree with me. I quit it and find that I am better without it. I wish you would speak to Mr Lee,if he is at home, and please say to him that I hold a note on him given for a share in the City of Sabine, and even a part of the am mount, would be of great service to Me as I never felt the need of cash so much. I hope it will be in his pow er to help me out for the present, or I will be disturbed indeed. If Kosciusco can spare his hounds (the [two?] dogs) for a few days, I would like to borrow them: and Mr Armstrong will bring them in his Boat.

To Colo. James Morgan New Washington Texas [Mr?] Armstrong [Following lines are reversed and flipped]
