2nd October 1860

Mr. A. H. Polk
Dear Sir!

I only write to
inform you that every
thing is going on as well as
can be expected. The negroes
are all enjoying good health and
working finely. This week I
will finish 200 Bales.

Old uncle Daniel died last
week.

Hoping to see you at home
as soon as possible [?]

Yours Respectfully

Abner Beers
