Title
Letter from a Houston Agent of William F. Weeks, March 25, 1864
Description
C. E. Gregory, an agent for Weeks in partnership with John Mills, writes from Houston to update Weeks on arrangements he had previously made to hire out one or more of his slaves as coopers. A Major Richardson now says that "he does not expect to want much cooperage" during the summer, but that he does require a cooper to make molasses barrels for several months. Another party named Mr. Grafflin (chief clerk of the N. O. R. R. office) will also write Weeks on the subject.
