Title: Letter from Captain Enos B. Moore to His Brother About Family and Business 1858
Date: 1858-03-6
Description: Letter from Enos B. Moore to his brother. The letter appears to be primarily an update on various people, family, and business. He mentioned Milton needing to save up money for a bushel to help him get through the hard times in the world, saying that people would swindle (fleece) individuals of their disposition. He received a letter from their father that all is well at home. While the letter is difficult to read, Moore discusses two locomotives on the Portsmouth Railroad and the N.O. Company, as well as another bridge and its association with a bridge that had fallen the previous fall. Business with the steamboat Crescent is doing well. He would like to hear of what kind of a boat they are building as Captain Waller is a little extravagant in his notions.
