Wayne County, NC - Miscellaneous William & Emmet Robinson Collection Johnston County Heritage Center Reference Box, P.C.1.1. George Ragsdale Collection Folkland Nov 14th 1857 Dear Sir In times past we used to spend pleasant times in each others company, and writing: but since you have turned to the pen for a calling I can hardly hope for you to write and for this, I should be pleased, could I be near you so that we could have the pleasure of your company. I never enjoyed myself more than when at Stantonsburg with yourself. I have been thinking that peradventure you might need some one in your school as an assistant, and if so, I should never be more pleased than to be associated with you. My wife is anxious to move to your place, and I should like to locate permanently in some town. I have some money, and should be pleased to invest it in some place that I might call my home. Give me best respects to your Lady and all and the same for yourself Yours &c James Murray Mr. Robinson Goldsboro _________________________________________________________________________ USGENWEB NOTICE: In keeping with our policy of providing free information on the Internet, data may be used by non-commercial entities, as long as this message remains on all copied material.
