Mouth of Brasos 3d Septemr. 1834

Dear Sir.

I enclose for your perusal and the satisfaction of Mrs. Perry the last letter that I have recd from our friend Col Austin. I wrote to him from Orleans and further authorized him to draw on Beers, St John and Co for 1,000$ which will last him until we can hear further from him.

I leave here in the steam boat for Columbia. If I had made my journey by Land should have done myself the pleasure of calling on you. I am very anxious to get home and am with esteem yr friend
