Title
John C. Moore to William F. Weeks, June 27, 1864
Description
Moore writes to Weeks about his intention to keep most of his "hand" in
Desoto Parish, sending a few back to the Teche to raise a crop if possible
there and on the Magill plantation. He is confident that Weeks's "reasoning
in relation to the detail is correct," but it arrived too late for Moore to
act on it, leaving him no choice but to "buy the Bacon & Beef as cheap as
posisble and get work for the negroes to pay for them."
