Letter signed John F. Sebree, “At Judge Hall’s,” to Colonel [Newton G. Elliott]. Finas McClain told me that he would give me $140 for all the mules we had 15 hands high and that would show 3-year-old teeth. Judge Hunt from Chariton told me that we can get as much corn as we want at $1.50. Those fellows that run me up to 3 dollars per barrel would have run me to 4 dollars if I had kept on bidding. Individuals mentioned: D. Garth and Nannie [Elliott]. Places mentioned: St. Louis., 1863 Nov 7
