Letter dated Feb. 4th 1841. This Letter is addressed to Major John H. Bills Postmaster, from Elijah M. Ringo. In short, it addresses the inheritance of land, 2 children(William & Elizabeth) and the "Negros" belonging to William & Elizabeth(obviously inherited as they are children). The author asks of John H Bills, advice concerning the certification of land papers and the best time for moving the Negros, so as they do not "suffer" due to the harsh winter travel.
