[Letter] 1857 Nov. 14, Fredg. [Fredericksburg] Va. to "my dear nephew" [John Albert Broadus] / your affectionate uncle William [F. Broaddus]. 1857.

William excused himself from going to Charlottesville to preach for John: "I am in a meeting here Thursday night and the school is on hand, and I am suffering tortures with hemorrhoids and many other things prevent. Accept the will for the deed." In closing, he sends "love to the little children and Julia Somers." John's wife had died in Oct. and Julia Somers probably was part of the arrangements to care for Broadus's three small daughters, Eliza, 7; Annie, 3; and Maria, 19 months.
