Henry St. George Tucker (1780-1848), Winchester to St. George Tucker, Richmond, 1802 November 5
Scope and Contents
Glad for his letter from Hicks and his news of Corotoman. Is alone in parlour before a fire. Mother’s provisions are holding out well. Dinner and breakfast are same except for coffee. Amblers invited him to dine with them. This court has been unprofitable. No opportunity for speaking. Regards Major H. as a friend, but has given him no opportunity to speak in court. Young Mr. McMechin who is about to leave the Berkeley bar has offered him two small cases. Mr. McCormick has never called for Johnny and may never do so. Thinks he was tipsy when they saw him. Also he is about to leave the country. Has not yet made any proposition to Mr. Powell. The Amblers and Bushes send greetings.
