Jacob Atkinson letter to Thomas Rotch, Wheeling, March 14, 1817

Jacob Atkinson provides an overview of his business concerns and discusses his future plans for farming. He informs Rotch that he would like money owed to him to be forwarded and he in turn will go to the Steubenville Bank and pay what is due to the land office there. He also advises Rotch to sell his cloth at a lower price so that "people might ascertain the superior value of your cloths.!" He also has merinos and despite hard times, he intends to increase his flock. 8" x 9.8" (20.3 by 25 cm
