Description
Chandler writes that the times have been “running very rough in the Spring and Summer as well as with most others.” He blames the U.S. Government for mining stock failures, and mentions that he “resigned [his] position in the Lady Bryan mine on account of the hard times.” He encourages Jane to write oftener. Notations in pencil on the first page at the top read: “Black Republican administration, Civil war.” Pencil marks highlight certain parts of the text pertaining to the title.
