Mr. Selkerk or Weightman
Dr Sir. We shall endeavor to find you at some place on the coast
and wish you to fire the prairie at different places as you go along—
In case we do not find you, I wish you to continue on the meanderings
to the forks of Karankawy, and then go to John Browns, where you
will find a letter of instructions S. F. Austin [Rubric]
