Letter from Jacob Eaton to William F. Weeks, September 2, 1863
Writing from Gentry, Eaton (an overseer) reports that two of Weeks’s brother’s slaves, Antana and Ogust, have runaway. The rest of the family is doing well and “there is not so many sick Negroes as when you left.” He sent the letter to Beaumont and will also send to Nibets Bluff and New Iberia “in case you have gone to La.”
