Title

Letters from Benjamin Chew, Jr. to Benjamin Chew, Sr. (1807, undated)

Description

Three letters from Benjamin Chew, Jr. to his father. The first letter seems to have been written on a note from a man asking Benajmin, Jr. if his father plans on selling his horses. The second letter is small and mentions Joshua Wallace and Thomas Biddle. On the back is a list of "deposits" from prominent men to one another, such as Edward Tilghman and Daniel Coxe, though it does not specify what for, but to be delivered to Thomas Newman. The first two small letters may have been enclosed in the third.
