Sending a contribution for Texas

To Genl Austin, Col Wharton and Dr Archer

Gentlemen

Feeling interested for the Cause of Texas, and being So Situated in life that I cannot aid them personally I would beg Your acceptance of the Within as a Small testimony of My good wishes for their Success, over the blood thirsty Tyrant of the Mexican butchers
