Title | from Duvals Bluff, Arkansas, 4 July 1865 |
Creator | Nelson, Olof |
Description | Duvals Bluff, Ark. July 4, 1865 Beloved Parents, I received your letter of the 19th of June on the 27th but haven't had time to answer it until now. We traveled from Louisville on the 25th of June by steamboat and arrived here yesterday. I am well but suffer a good deal from the heat, as it is very warm here. We will leave here day after tomorrow for Little Rock or perhaps Fort Smith. I shall write you again as soon as we stop somewhere. I am glad that Nils wants to come over, but it will probably be late this year. I have sent 100 dollars to Nilson, which will be for Nils when he comes. Write as soon as you can. I haven't time to write more, so will close with many greetings to everyone I know. Your affectionate son, Olof Nelson To P. Jacobson By your order I hereby promise to pay whatever money my brother, Nils, receives in Sweden, as soon as he arrives here. |
