Sarah Trebell Browne, Gordonsville, to Dr. A. D. Galt, Richmond, 1813 July 7
Scope and Contents
Scope and Contents Col. Walker's regiment has been ordered out and feared Dr. Galt had been summoned too as surgeon. She was worried about the situation in Hampton but feels there is little to fear now if the soldiers fight as bravely as they have. She dined today with Mr. Waddel, son of the celebrated preacher. There was a Methodist meeting about half a mile from here, but it was too warm to go. Great need for rain as everything is burnt up.
