Title
Maggie Weeks to William F. Weeks, Undated [1863]
Description
Maggie writes of the business activities of her husband, Charles C. Weeks,
in Texas, and other local news in Mansfield. "Charlie is almost making
himself sick, he is so desirous to get into business & be making money," she
writes. "According to his account, he is so poor, he can hardly afford to
eat a piece of bread & meat. Please help him, and for my sake, let him into
some of your secrets of getting rich. Brother Alfred wrote Charlie that he
had become nothing but a hewer of wood & drawer of water, and I fear Charlie
will be in the same sad condition."
