Description
This letter regards money that Walker sent in his last letter. He is relieved to hear that Fannie is well again. He also writes of the Lord Byron scandal from Harriet Beecher Stowe's publication of Lady Byron's life in The Atlantic. He discusses how crowded it is on the Sabine, and Walker sends men onboard other ships for more room.
