Letter from John Wesley Park to his family

Park writes to "the firm of Park & Co." that he is deceiving the local population about his free-soil leanings and that he is an "American Free-soiler not a Freemont Free-soiler." He admits that he writes "curious letters" and gives "Modisette Mansion, Missouri" as the address of where he boards in Smithville.
