Letter, James W. Miller in Jackson, Miss., to David Burford in Dixon Springs, Tenn., 1849 January 17
ALS. 1p. Claims that two "unsound" people (Daniel and Mary) were sold to him by Burford with the latter's knowledge. Miller asserts that Burford represented them as "sound" and therefore owes him a reduction in the amount to be paid. Notes on the verso in the hand of Burford indicate the actions he planned to take.
