Davenport / Dear Sir: / When I went to Danville in the fall I found that [defendant, Land Agent] Don Carlos had not yet been served with process. I was greatly vexed, and made an affidavit to have a publication made for him, as one who was evading process – Before the end of the term Drake & Moses (lawyers) concluded to, and did enter his appearance, upon which they were ruled to file answers by some day this winter – I think Jany. 1, but not quite certain – That was all I could do – When the answers shall be filed, I ought to have copies of them & I have not yet provided for getting them – / Yours very truly / A.
