A Copy of the division of Wheat at the Plantations of P.C. Cameron & Thos A Cameron in Person County N.C. -- made by H Montgomery & Wm. L Gray
Raleigh 3rd Sept 1865 My dear Sir On my return home last night I mentioned to May & Milly your recommendation of Miss Sally Williams. They both seemed to think she would not answer at all & I therefore wish to ask that you will not trouble yourself to go to Chapel Hill for the purpose of employing her. I must look out here for some one that will suit.
I found Mildred better than when I left home & I hope She will continue to improve-- I got home last night about 8 Clock having done all I could do now at the plantation.
May & Milly send love to all- to which please add mine - I hope you succeeded in disposing of your Stack -
Yours truly George Mordecai

Cambridge Oct 7th /69
Miss Mordecai
I have often thought of sending a letter to you, as you were kind enough to wish to hear from me but many things have occcasioned me to delay it. James & myself reached here safely in July, we had no difficulty in finding my Mother from the direction that we had. Bryant was already here before us, we are now all living together at house keeping
very happily. My Mother does work as a Semp[s]tress in different families, & gets work for me when I am able to do it, she has many friends here & more work than she can do - James has constant work at his trade, & Bryant works in the College Garden. I want to ask the favor of Mr Mordecai to go to my Minister, Mr Pell, & ask him to send me a letter of recommendation to a Methodist Church here, I have not yet joined any, & am desirous to have
a letter from my Minister to show, before I do so. There is a large & flourishing Baptist Church here, of which my Mother is a member, & I go to Church with her now, but I would like to get a letter to the Methodist. I wish much to know how all my friends are, particularly Miss Mildred, please remember me kindly to her. Please give my love to all my friends & companions who may enquire for me.
Yours respectfully
Agnes Bergwin
