Rio La Vaca November 7th 1827.

Dear Sir,

I send a few things to the Brasos by Mr. Alley to be stored until my arrival which will be within fifteen days from the present date. Mr James Kerr was good enough to give me a few Lines to you which you have in the Bundle of Letters.

Should there be any Persons of trust going by the way of Natchitoches to the United States — be Pleased to forward this Packet of letters by them to be Mailed at that Place.

John Gibson [Rubric]

[Addressed:] Jas. B. Austin.
