Letter, Myer Myers, Richmond, Virginia from Samuel Myers, Pensacola, Florida, 1822 October 6
Scope and Contents
Sam, Louisa and the children well in their retreat, but fever is still present in Pensacola. Recounts many deaths, but says it is less deadly now. Present prospects of the area are unflattering. Mobile or New Orleans would be better. Says Governor Jackson "universally and deservedly unpopular."
