1862 August 7 Richmond, Va.

                     Richmond August 7th 1862

Dear Mary
                  I shall send by Jim Six (6)
plough points and a rectd bill---
I thought to day I wold be obliged to move
into the City, but I have just heard that Dr
Deane will not require his house, & I am
glad to hear it, for board is from $50 to 75
and it is hard to get, at any price-----
I am very anxious to hear from Wm. Packard
---I sent you Tompkin's Acct & Sam Prices.
Ned Taylor got Thos. R. Prices acct-----
     Lucy sold for less than she should
have sold for, by several hundred dollars.
    I have had nothing to do since I returned--
    Col will go up Sat and perhaps I may
go with him, or send George who is very
anxious to visit home--I promised John
to let him come down, & perhaps I may
do so, but not at this time.
     Love & Kisses to all
                     Your Cal

Callender St. George Noland, 1813-1879
