John Tyler, Jr., Richmond, Virginia to Washington Greenhow, City Treasurer of Richmond, Virginia Tyler has been meaning to send the enclosed inscription of a tomb from the Bruton Parish graveyard [inscription not included in collection] that shows the origin of the branch of Greenhow’s family for some time. He has been appointed Assistant Treasurer of the United States in New York City. Tyler called on Greenhow and Robert Munford to borrow money, which he wouldn’t have done if he hadn’t been drinking. Shortly afterward he received a draft from Treasury Department, solving his “pecuniary “ needs.
