I paid $6.00 for postage on letters to Judy and Tudor Randolph. Judy still believes I murdered Dick (Richard Randolph). Tudor says in New York that he saw my love letters to Billy Ellis. Dick knew my every act and every motive while he lived.

I received a letter from my brother John R. Waddey of Northampton County in which he says they need a deputy marshall. He would like to obtain the appointment. Can you use your influence in this matter? Including Tucker's answer.

Mr. Grieve Drummond a private of the Petersburg Volunteers was wounded in battle and is entitled to a pension. Will you make the necessary arrangements?

Returned to family. His brigade was discharged. Uncertain about future military duty but ready to return. Met Beverley in the army. He is in high reputation and bids fair to excel in miltary profession. Uncle's kindness was without parallel.

Mrs. Carrington delivered your letter to me. The contents of your letter were unexpected. I saw your sister (Judith (Randolph) Randolph) in Richmond and she spoke with pleasure about you and your family.

I can't come to you without breaking up the court. I hope the enemy will not destroy York. A group of regulars from S. C. are on their way to Bottom's Bridge. My sister Peggy died in Kentucky after giving birth to two sons who are alive.

Released from army. Has daughter more than he expected. Was in Maryland. Lord Hill and great army here. Has no more paper so sends this with plat of land on other side. Short note by Mary (Coalter) Tucker at end of letter.

Arrived here at 11:00 last night. John Cocke sets out for Fort Powhatan. Saw Coalter today. Shall leave at 10 tomorrow for Canton.

Received your letter containing the anonymous letter transmitted to you from New York. I was shocked to receive it. It is evident the fabrication of some wretch trying to destroy your happiness. Am sending a short publication of mine from the papers in May 1793.

Polly's health better. State legislature and Congress at cross purposes. Need proper military arrangements for future. Will accept whatever military appointment he gets. "I have come back into Old Virgnia, more of a Virginian than ever, and as to Messrs the Yankees, I love them not."

Arrived at New Canton on Friday. Nan, her children and my children met me at the ferry. All is well here and no talk of war.

As soon as my vessel returns from Richmond, I can send it after your coal.

Gen. Cocke looked at the horses and will give you a report on them. Wish I could visit you this Christmas. War matters. Beverley wrote me.

Am sending you a ballot to be signed. We are still very safe. Our treasury notes have been paid up.

All is peace and happiness here. Your letter informed me of the miseries I had forgotten. God send you a Merry Christmas and a happy reprieve from John Bull.

We were married five years ago yesterday. Our walls contain every blessing. When I left Bizarre, I parted cordially with Jack, Judy and Tudor (Randolph). Jack accused me of making money by prostitution. Concerning Randolph scandal.

Am returning the paper you sent me. Can you come and live with us? Nancy transcribed the lines written by Mrs. Page. I think John Randolph is behind those anonymous letters.

Have read the account of the infamous Tory meeting at Hartford in The Enquirer. I think something should be written to then about this. Can't you write something. I would like to address a few coal essays to the people of New England.

Glad to hear that peace has been signed. How are my dear sisters in Bermuda? Received your payment.

We will leave Nan and her family. We hope to be with you by Thursday.
