Does not know where to get money for Texas

House of Rep. 14 April 1836

Dear Genl,

Yours has been red—If I find I can use the enclosure to your advantage I shall do it. I have no idea where or how you [can] get money for your country—I wish I did my heart bleeds for the late calamity brought upon your suffering and patriotic Country

It is my opinion that it would be useless at this time to get our Government to go into the contest as a nation

When you return you can find out how far it would be prudent to ask

Rh M Johnson

[Addressed:] Genl. S. F. Austin New York, City New York
